7Long Mix Play

If the BPM rates match, mixing of tracks A and B will sound good even if the CROSS FADER slider is in the middle position.

7Fader Start Play

Using the cross fader start function of the DJ Mixer DJM-500 or DJM-300, step 10 above can be elimi- nated for even simpler mixing. In addition, when the CROSS FADER slider is returned to its original posi- tion, the status returns to that in step 9 (player CD-2 at its cue point), so that you can repeat the same play as many times as you like.
