4.4 Pitch Controls

PITCH BEND BUTTONS

Used to temporarily decrease or increase the playback speed plus or minus

2%. Pitch will return to the current pitch slider setting when released.

PITCH SLIDER

The high resolution

PITCH SLIDERS can be set for four different pitch ranges.

The

PITCH SLIDER RANGE is selected in the SYSTEM menu under AUDIO

SETTINGS, with selectable ranges of +/-5%, +/-10%, +/-25%, +25% -100%.

The pitch slider range alters the amount of pitch change that can be performed

by the slider, and acts to control the maximum range of pitch adjustment that

can be made by the

SYNC or AUTO-DJ functions.

AUTO LED

When the

SYNC button is used, this turns off your PITCH SLIDER, and the SCS.4DJ’s SYNC

ENGINE takes over. The AUTO LED provides a visual indicator of when this is happening. This

LED has two operating states when ON, depending on the setting in the

SYSTEM MENU:

- Soft Takeover: LED is lit until the PITCH SLIDER is moved past the VIRTUAL pitch setting.

- Direct Physical Takeover: LED turns off when PITCH SLIDER is moved, PITCH will instantly

jump to the current physical position.

When the

PITCH SLIDER is moved to match the VIRTUAL POSITION (when SOFT TAKEOVER

is on) or simply moved at all (when

Direct Physical Takeover is on), the AUTO LED will then turn

OFF. This also means that the

SYNC ENGINE is no longer in control of your mix, so your mix might

be thrown off.

KEYLOCK LED

KEYLOCK allows you to move the PITCH SLIDER up and down to change playback speed without

altering the key of the song. The

KEYLOCK LED illuminates when the corresponding KEYLOCK

BUTTON is used in either the your HOME or WAVES screen. When the KEYLOCK function is

turned off, the LED will not be illuminated.
