BASIC OPERATIONS (CONT.)

12.PITCH BEND:

This function will momentarily increase or decrease a tracks playback speed. There are two ways to operate this function with the (-) & (+) PITCH BUTTONS (25) or with the JOG WHEEL (19). The maximum pitch bend percentage allowed is +/- 16%. The pitch bend function will work in conjunction with the PITCH SLIDER

(23)pitch setting. The PITCH SLIDER (23) adjustment can be changed to range from +/-8%, +/-12%, or +/-16% (See changing "PITCH SLIDER PERCENTAGE RANGE" on page 16). For example, if the PITCH SLIDER (23) is set to a 2% pitch gain the pitch bending process will begin at 2% and will continue to the maximum of -/+16%.

PITCH BEND BUTTONS (15 & 16):

The (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (15 & 16) will provide a speed bump and the (-) PITCH BEND BUTTON (15) will provide a slow down. The extent to which the speed changes is proportionate to the amount of time the button is pressed. For example, if the (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (16) is held down continuously, the disc speed will increases and will continue to increase until reaches a maximum of 100% speed gain. When you release the (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (16) the disc speed will automatically return to it’s previous speed.

Holding down or tapping on the (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (16) will provide a speed bump in the playback pitch.

Holding down or tapping on the

Figure 15(-) PITCH BEND BUTTON (15) will provide a slow down in the playback pitch.

JOG WHEEL (19):

The JOG WHEEL (19) will temporarily bend the pitch if a track is in play mode Rotating the wheel in a clockwise direction will increase your track pitch and rotating the wheel in a counter-clockwise direction will slow your track pitch. The speed you rotate the JOG WHEEL (19) will determine pitch bend percentage (%).
