Memo Function (Custom Setting Memory)

The setting information can be stored in the file. The stored information can be called out of the memory at later time, making it easy to prepare for your mixing.

About Memo

For the memo function, the data that can be stored in the memo differs according to the playback mode.

qIn the CD play mode

Up to 5000 memos can be stored, one memo per track. For a disc with 22 tracks, for example, 22 memos can be set.

NOTE

The track memo function’s memory system handles 1000 memos as one package (1000 memo – 5 packages). Since this memo system’s memory is deleted in units of packages, when one memo is deleted, the memo number remains and the memory area does not increase. Thus, the actual number of memos that can be stored is reduced. “Memo Full!” is displayed when 5000 memos are stored. In this case, the memory for one package worth of memos (1000 memos) must be deleted, starting from the oldest memos.

b When a disc for which memo data is set is loaded, the “MEMO” indicator flashes. The indicator lights when a track for which there is memo data is selected.

The data stored in the memory is as follows:

a)Cue point

b)A1 and B1 points, A2 and B2 points

c)Playing pitch, pitch on/off, Key Adjust on/off setting

d)BPM data (Cue, A1 and A2 points)

The A1, A2, B1 and B2 points may be on different track, as long as they are within the disc.

wFor the file playback mode

The memo data is stored in the MP3/WAV file itself, so once memo data is stored in the file, it can be called out and used when playing the file on a different DN-S1200.

The MEMO mode is not set in the following cases:

a)When the MEMO operation is being executed on the other deck.

b)When the database is being loaded.

c)When the same file is selected on both decks.

If the memo operation is possible for the deck on the side for which memo operation is set, the memo operation can be executed even when the deck on the other side is playing.

If the same track is selected for the deck on the other side, however, or if you attempt to switch to the same track, the memo operation cannot be executed.

Furthermore, if while the memo operation is being executed you attempt to search and play the track for which the memo operation is being performed on the other deck, searching is canceled and playback is stopped.

The data stored in the memory is as follows:

a)Cue point

b)A1 and B1 points, A2 and B2 points

c)Playing pitch, pitch on/off, Key Adjust on/off setting

d)BPM data (Cue, A1 and A2 points)

The point data is limited to data within the same file when using a USB memory device.

The “MEMO” indicator on the display lights up when a file for which data is storing within a file is selected.

The memo function cannot be used with VBR files.

eFor the playlist playback mode

The memo data is stored in the playlist file itself, so when transporting playlist files in which the memo data has been stored and playing them on a different DN-S1200, that data can be called out and used.

Memo data can be stored a total of times equal to the number of files registered in the playlist.

For example, if 74 files are registered in a playlist, 74 bits of memo data can be stored in that playlist.

The data stored in the memory is as follows:

a)Cue point

b)A1 and B1 points, A2 and B2 points

c)Playing pitch, pitch on/off, Key Adjust on/off setting

d)BPM data (Cue, A1 and A2 points)

The A1, A2, B1 and B2 points may be on different files, as long as they are within the playlist.

The memo data can be used in the same way as with conventional CDs.

The “MEMO” indicator on the display lights up when a file for which data is storing within a file is selected.

The memo function cannot be used with VBR files.

Memo Mode Select

qPush the MEMO button during Cue mode to enter MEMO mode.

wTurn the PARAMETERS knob to select the various MEMO modes from as follows.

Memo Set (default), Memo Call, Memo Clr

Depending on conditions, some modes cannot be selected.

ePush the MEMO button again to exit MEMO mode.

(1) Storing data in the memory [Memo Set]

After making the settings to be storing within a file, then push CUE button.

When the “MEMO” indicator in the display is off during CUE mode, push MEMO button to enable Memo set function.

If the “MEMO” indicator lights up, it is necessary to clear existing Memo before storing a new Memo.

At last push PARAMETERS button to save. You can see “Complete!” message and the “MEMO” indicator lights up.

When the Memo Set function cannot be used, check the remaining space on the device. It may not be possible to store data in the memory if there is too little space left.

It may not be possible to store memo data when the remaining memory space is low.

When the memory is full, “Memo Full” or “Delete 1000?” appears. If this message is displayed, the

memory for 1000 memos, starting from the oldest memo, must be deleted to free up new space. To make space, press the PARAMETERS button while “Delete 1000” is displayed.

When the PARAMETERS button is pressed while the confirmation message “Delete OK?” is displayed, the memory for 1000 memos is deleted.
