ACTIVATING TOUCH SENSITIVITY: Before you can use the JOG WHEEL
(13)
to control the play and cue commands you must first activate the jog
wheel touch sensitivity. To activate the touch sensitivity mode, be sure the
FX SELECT LED is glowing green. Once the FX SELECT LED is glowing
green, press and hold the SCRATCH BUTTON (19) until it begins to flash
red repeatedly. This will activate touch sensitivity mode.

IN PLAYBACK MODE: While in play mode and when the touch sensitivity
function is active, the JOG WHEEL (13) can be used to return the unit to last
cue point. Simply touch the JOG WHEEL (13) and unit will immediately return
to the last set cue point and playback without music interruption. Essentially
the JOG WHEEL (13) becomes a BOP EFFECT.

IN CUE MODE: While in cue mode and when the touch sensitivity function is
active, tapping on the JOG WHEEL (13) can be used to start playback. The
unit will continue to playback until the JOG WHEEL (13) is released. Once the
JOG WHEEL (13) is released the unit will return to the last cue point.
