Remedy
Plug in the power cord to an AC outlet.
Turn the [DIGITAL, CD/ LINE, PHONO, LINE, USB */ *] selector switch to switch
to the channel's input source. (page 13)
Connect the connection cables properly. (page 7)
Clean the terminals and plugs before making connections.
At the [USER SETUP] screen, switch [MASTER ATT.]. (page 22)
On the [CLUB SETUP] screen, set [Digital Master Out Sampling Rate]
according to the specifications of the connected equipment. (page 22)
Adjust the [MASTER LEVEL] control so that the master channel level indicator
lights at around [0 dB] at the peak level. (page 13)
Set [MASTER ATT.] to [–3 dB] or [–6 dB]. (page 22)
Adjust the [TRIM] control so that the channel level indicator lights at about [0
dB] at the peak level. (page 13)
Set the [CROSS FADER ASSIGN (A, THRU, B)] selector switches for the differ-
ent channels properly. (page 13)
At the [USER SETUP] screen, set [FADER START] to [ON]. (page 22)
Connect the DJ player to the [LINK] terminal properly using a LAN cable. (page 7)
Connect this unit's audio input terminals and the DJ player's audio output
terminals by audio cable. (page 7)
Set the DJ player's player number to the same number as the channel to which
the audio cable is connected.
Turn the [1, 2, 3, 4, MIC, CF.A, CF.B, MASTER] selector switch to select the
channel to which you want to apply the effect.
Turn the [COLOR] control clockwise or counterclockwise. (page 14)
Press the [ON/ OFF] button for [BEAT EFFECTS] to set [SND/ RTN] to [ON].
(page 15)
Connect the external effector to the [SEND] and [RETURN] terminals. (page 7)
Adjust the external effector's audio output level.
Adjust the [TRIM] control so that the channel level indicator lights at about [0
dB] at the peak level. (page 13)
For some tracks, it may not be possible to measure the tempo (BPM). Use the
[TAP] button to input the tempo manually. (page 15)
The values may differ slightly due to the different ways in which the BPM is
measured. There is no need to make any corrections.
Set the MIDI sequencer's sync mode to Slave.
MIDI sequencers not supporting MIDI timing clocks cannot be synchronized.
Press the [ON/ OFF] button for [MIDI]. (Operating DJ software using the MIDI
function on page 16)
To operate DJ software with this unit, this unit's MIDI messages must be
assigned to the DJ software you are using. For instructions on assigning mes-
sages, see your DJ software's operating instructions.
Install the driver software. If it is already installed, reinstall it. (page 8)
Connect this unit and computer using a USB cable. (page 8)
Select this unit with the audio output device settings. For instructions on mak-
ing settings for your application, see your application's operating instructions.
Set the [DIGITAL, CD/ LINE, PHONO, LINE, USB */ *] selector switch to the
[USB */ *] position. (page 13)
The circuit that generates the echo for the [ECHO], [REVERB], [ROLL], [SLIP
ROLL] and [REV ROLL] effect sounds is positioned after the effect circuit, so
the effect sound cannot be monitored. This is not a malfunction.
For analog players with built-in phono equalizers, connect the player to the
[CD/ LINE] or [LINE] terminals. (page 7)
If the analog player with built-in phono equalizer has a PHONO/ LINE selector
switch, switch it to PHONO.
If the audio interface for computers has a line level output, connect it to the
[CD/ LINE] or [LINE] terminal. (page 7)
If the analog player has a PHONO/ LINE selector switch, switch it to PHONO.
