PITCH ADJUSTMENT

Pitch Adjustment
The playback speed can be adjusted variably up
to ±100 % with the pitch slide control (in MP3
mode up to ±16 %).
1
First select the adjusting range with the
button [%]. Each actuation of the buttons
switches the unit between 4 %, 8 %, 16 %,
and 100 %.
• The corresponding LED lights up.
• When 100 % is selected, all LEDs light up.
2
Long actuation of the button [%] activates the
pitch slide control and the control LED above
the button lights up (basic setting).
3
Then slide up the pitch control to decrease
the pitch and slide it down to increase the
pitch.
• The display shows the percentage deviation
from the standard speed.
• The control locks into place in mid-position.
In this position a title is played at standard
speed.
• On the remote control use the buttons [+] or
[–] to adjust the pitch. Press the [0%] button
to switch back to the standard speed.
4
Tip: Decreasing the playback speed to a
maximum of -100 % causes a standstill of
the title. This effect corresponds to the
stopping of an analog turntable.

Activating Key Lock

With the change of speed, the tonal pitch is also
changed proportionally. However, with the key
lock function activated, the tonal pitch will remain
constant. To activate the key lock press the KEY
LOCK [ ] button (basic setting).
• The control LED above the button lights up and
the display indicates .
Matching the Beat Between Two Titles
(Pitch Bend)
With the function pitch bend, the beat of the
current title can be matched (synchronized) to the
beat of a title on a second player or vice versa.
Thus the rhythm will not be interrupted while
crossfading from one title to another. Unlike the
adjustment with the pitch slide control this function
will temporarily increase or decrease a title's
speed during replay.
1
First use the pitch slide control to adjust the
same number of beats (BPM) for both music
pieces.
2
Then synchronize the beats of the two music
pieces by turning the jogdial.
• The change of speed depends on the turning
speed of the jogdial: Rotating the dial in a
clockwise direction will increase your title
speed and rotating the dial in a counter-
clockwise direction will decrease your title
speed.
• As soon as you stop turning the dial the BPM
will automatically return to normal.
3
Tip: If the dial is continuously turned in a
counterclockwise direction, the playback
speed will decrease to a maximum of
-100 %, i.e. the standstill of the title. This
effect corresponds to the stopping of an
analog turntable.
4
Alternatively to the jogdial, you can also use
the PITCH BEND buttons for matching the
beat.
• As long as the button [+] or [–] is kept
pressed, the title is played faster or slower.
The deviation from the standard speed
depends on the pitch adjustment range
selected (up to 100 % for audio CDs; up to
16 % for MP3 files).
• As soon as you release the PITCH BEND
buttons the BPM will automatically return to
normal.
