DJUCED™ and DJ Control AIR

- The beat of one deck at the same moment as the beat of the other deck.
So if you play tracks on decks A and B, and press the Sync button on deck B:
1) It instantly changes the playback speed of deck A to match the playback speed of deck B.
2) It instantly sets the beat of deck A to play at the same moment as the beat of deck B.
Synchronizing a music track with another track can be achieved:
- Either automatically, by pressing the Sync button (in the DJUCED interface or on DJ Control
AIR); or
or
- Manually, generally via 2 steps:
o First, by setting the same BPM as on the reference deck, using the pitch fader.
o Then by slowing down or speeding up the track using pitch bend, until the beats play
at the same time on both decks (pitch bend can be achieved either by turning the jog
wheel, or by pressing the pitch bend buttons).
Once the 2 decks are synchronized, you see that they are synchronized in DJUCED, as the
background of the beat marks turns to blue.
Blue = synchronized = beat marks of both decks on the same columns.
Black = not synchronized = beat marks not on the same columns.
