fader or cross fader controls. (The control cable must be connected.)

Fader Start Play
When the DJ mixer DJM-500 and the CD player CDJ-500G for DJs are connected using the control cable, fader start play
can be performed. This means that by increasing the mixer fader control, the pause of the player will be released and the
song starts immediately automatically. The cross fader can also be used to perform fader start play. By returning the fader
to the original position, as the player will be returned to the cue point (back cue), sampler playing can also be performed.
(DJM-500 fader start play can be performed even when combined with the CDJ-500G and CDJ-500 . However, back cue
play can be performed only when combined with the CDJ-500 .)
Cross Fader Start Play and Back Cue Play
A can be started just by moving the cross fader control
from right to left during standby when A is at the cue point.
Likewise, B can also be started just by moving the cross
fader control from left to right during standby when B is
at the cue point.
At the same time, A will back cue (returns to the cue point).
