USB MASTER MODE
By connecting a USB mass storage class device such as a USB hard drive,
thumb drive or portable media player to the MASTER USB connector on the top of
the MIXDECK EXPRESS, you can access, play, and scratch your music files in
the same way you might play a normal audio CD.
To access your USB device:
1. First make sure it is connected to the USB MASTER connector on the top panel of the MIXDECK EXPRESS.
2. Press the SOURCE button to choose which source you want to play: USB A or USB B.
3. Press down on the TRACK knob.
4. After the MIXDECK EXPRESS has first analyzed the partition structure (max 9 partitions), then analyzed the folder
structure (max 999 folders) of the USB device, you can then navigate through your USB device by following the
instructions below.
USB Mass Storage Device
To access files on a USB mass storage class device, use the TRACK knob to choose which folder you want to open, then
press down on the knob to enter that folder. You can then use the TRACK knob to either navigate to another folder level or
choose an audio file in the current folder that you want to play.
Hint: To organize a large music collection you might consider creating a separate folder for each artist.
Please note:
•
Because not all MP3 devices are USB mass storage class, not every player will be compatible with the MIXDECK
EXPRESS.
•
If there are no MP3 files inside a folder you are browsing on your external device, the MIXDECK EXPRESS will display
"No MP3 files in this folder, PLS try another one."
Tips For Using USB Devices With Your MIXDECK EXPRESS
•
When disconnecting a USB device from the MIXDECK EXPRESS, always make sure to use the SOURCE button to
switch to CD/MP3 Mode before disconnecting. Make sure that the letters "USB" are not blinking on the display when
disconnecting a USB device.
•
Disconnecting a USB device while the MIXDECK EXPRESS is in USB MASTER Mode could possibly cause data on the
USB device to become corrupted and unreadable.
•
Note: There is a limit of 999 songs per folder or playlist. Use multiple folders or playlists to separate large numbers of
songs.
•
We do not recommend using MP3 files over 300MB as this may affect the performace of the MIXDECK EXPRESS.
•
For large capacity HD, the MIXDECK EXPRESS can read a maximum of 9 disc partitions. Each partition is limited to
999 folders, and each folder is limited to 999 songs.
USB MIDI MODE
You can also connect the MIXDECK EXPRESS to a computer via USB to use the MIXDECK EXPRESS's CD decks as
controllers for software programs that are compliant with USB MIDI protocol. Check with your software manufacturer to find out
if your software supports a USB MIDI controller.
Note: The mixer controls do not have any MIDI function.
To activate USB MIDI mode, connect a USB cable from the MIXDECK EXPRESS USB SLAVE connector to a USB port on
your computer. Then press SOURCE to select "MIDI-PC" and press down on the TRACK KNOB.
