MATCHING THE BEATS PER MINUTE (BPM)
Match the tempo by monitoring the music of two CD Players by ear and adjusting the pitch. When the tempo of the music of the selected CD player is slow compared to the tempo of the other player, move the slider to the “+” side and match the tempo. When faster, move the pitch slider to the
Press PLAY/PAUSE to start PLAYER 1

Press PLAY/PAUSE to start PLAYER 2

Listen to PLAYER 2 in your headphones
When PLAYER 2 is fast compared to PLAYER 1 slow down PLAYER 2
MATCHING BEATS USING PITCH BEND
If you find the BPM’s (Beats Per Minute or Tempos) are the same, however, the drumbeats are not matched you will need to temporarily change the pitch. This description is for the case of matching the beat of PLAYER 2 to the beat of the music being played on PLAYER 1. (This procedure can be done on either PLAYER).
After matching the BPM’s adjust the pitch temporarily as follows:
When PLAYER 2 is behind rotate the jog wheel | When PLAYER 2 is ahead rotate the jog wheel counter |
clockwise to bend pitch faster | clockwise to bend pitch slower. |
The pitch changes automatically while the jog wheel is rotated. The faster you rotate the wheel the more you change. Releasing the wheel results in a return to the original pitch. (So the BPM’s are once again the same)
