2. pitch BenDinG:
Unlike the pitCh sLidEr (26) adjustment this function will momentarily increase or decrease a tracks
speed during playback. To operate this function use the (-) & (+) pitCh bEnd bUttOns (29). The
maximum pitch bend percentage allowed is +/- 16%. The pitch bend function will work in conjunction
with the pitCh sLidEr (26) pitch setting. For example, if the pitCh sLidEr (26) is set to a 2% pitch
gain the pitch bending process will begin at 2% and will continue to the maximum of +/-16%.
pitch BenD Buttons (29):
The (+) pitCh bEnd bUttOn (29) will increase track playback speed and the (-) pitCh bEnd bUt-
tOn (29) will decrease track playback speed. The extent to which the speed changes is proportion-
ate to the amount of time the button is pressed. For example, if the (+) pitCh bEnd bUttOn (29)
is held down continuously as in figure 31, the speed will increases and will continue to increase until
it reaches a maximum of 16% speed gain. When you release the (+) pitCh bEnd bUttOn (29) the
speed will automatically return to it’s previous set speed.
Holding down on the (-) pitCh bEnd bUt-
tOn (29) will provide a slow down in the play-
back pitch.
Figure 29
using the pitch slider percentage selector
(28): You may choose a pitch operating range at
any time. To change the operating range be sure
the pitch function is turned on, see figure 27. The
pitch percentage can be changed between +/-4%,
+/-8%, or +/-16%. 4% will allow the least amount
of pitch manipulation and 16% will allow the most
amount of pitch manipulation. To adjust the dif-
ferent values, hold the % bUttOn (28) until your
desired value is reached.
