14. PITCH BEND
This function will momentarily increase or decrease a tracks playback speed using the (-) & (+) PITCH BUT-
TONS (11). The maximum pitch bend percentage allowed is +/-16%. The pitch bend function will work in
conjunction with the PITCH SLIDER (8) pitch setting. For example, if the PITCH SLIDER (8) is set to a 2% pitch
gain the pitch bending process will begin at 0% and wi
ll continue to the maximum of -/+16%.
PITCH BEND BUTTONS (11)
The (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (11) will provide a speed bump and the (-) PITCH BEND BUTTON (11) will pro-
vide 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 (11) is held down continuously, the disc speed will
increases and will continue to increase until it reaches a maximum of 16% speed gain. When you release the
(+) PITCH BEND BUTTON (11) the disc speed will automati
cally return to it’s previous speed.
Holding down or tapping on the (+) PITCH
BEND BUTTON (11) will provide a speed
bump in the playback pitch.
Holding down or tapping on the (-) PITCH BEND
BUTTON (11) will provide a slow down in the
playback pitch.

JOG WHEEL (18)
The JOG WHEEL (18) will temporarily bend
the pitch if a track is in play mode. Turning
the wheel in a clockwise direction will increase
your track pitch and turning the wheel in a
counter-clockwise direction will slow your
track pitch. The speed you rotate the JOG
WHEEL (18) will determine pitch bend percent-
age, to a maximum of +/-100%.
