Setting the cue point

The two modes for setting cue point are as follows.

Play mode (default setting):

The cue point is automatically set as the last playback
start point.

Cue mode:

The cue point is set as the point where the unlit

CUE

key is pressed when the CD is paused or during scrub
playback.

Press the

CUE

key while holding down the

SHIFT

key to display the current mode (

PLAY or CUE) briefly.

Change the mode by pressing the

while the mode is displayed.

The setting can also be changed by selecting

PLAY or

CUE in the Setup menu CUE KEY item.

NOTE

The CUE key lights when a cue point is set. When
the mode setting is CUE, the key will flash during
pause or scrub playback.

The cue point is canceled when the CD cover is
opened.

5- DJ functions

Cue

A cue point can be set that allows you to pause play-
back and jump to that point by pressing the

CUE

key.

The unit's DJ functions include Cue, Hot Cue (Flash Start), Loop playback, Tempo control, and Pitch bend.

Using and confirming the cue point

By pressing the

CUE

key once, you can pause play-

back and jump to the cue point. If you press and hold
down the

CUE

key again, playback continues from

the cue point until you release the key.

When you release the

CUE

key, playback pauses and

the playback position resets to the same cue point.

The cue point can be confirmed using this function.

To resume normal playback, press the

PLAY/PAUSE

key during playback while holding down the

CUE

key.

Hot Cue

The CD-DJ1 has two

HOT CUE

keys (

1

and

2

) that

allow you to set independent Hot Cue points. After
a Hot Cue point has been set, pressing its

HOT CUE

key either starts or pauses playback at that point.

Use the Setup menu FLASH Start item to set whether

HOT CUE

keys start or pause playback (see “Flash

Start” on page 17).

Setting Hot Cue points

Press an unlit

HOT CUE

key during playback, pause,

or scrub playback. The Hot Cue point for that key
will be set and the key will light up.
