Numark HDCD1 - 17 – User’s Guide
Searching for Songs Searching is only as good as your ID3 tag information. It’s a good idea to be as consistent as possible
with your ID3 tags as this will make your searches faster and more efficient.
You can enter search text by using either the jog wheel or the included keyboard.
Jog Wheel: Rotating the jog-wheel will scroll through the alphabet from A-Z and from 0-9. You
can press the SELECT button when the desired character is shown. In this mode, the back button
acts like a backspace key. To insert a blank space, use the scroll wheel to select the blank
character (located before the capital “A”) and press the SELECT button. Press the SEARCH button
to begin the search.
Keyboard: Connect the keyboard to either the front or rear keyboard input jack. Most Keys work
as expected:
Use the left and right arrow keys for cursor movement.
Use the ENTER key like the SELECT button on the HDCD1.
Use the ESC key like the BACK button on the HDCD1.
Use the BACK SPACE to back up and delete text.
Use the DEL key to delete a character at the cursor’s position, moving all following
text backwards by one character.
Note: When using the search feature, the keyboard can only be used on one deck at a time. If you wish
to perform a second search at the same time on the opposite deck, the jog wheel must be used for text
entry.
To enter search mode, press the SEARCH button. The following screen will appear. You can search
by artist, song, album, or playlist.
Use the jog wheel or arrow keys to highlight the search category, then press the SELECT button
or ENTER key to select it. Press the BACK button or the ESC key if you want to go back to the
previous menu level. After choosing your search category, the following search input screen is
displayed:
