[. . . ] Operating load adjust screw (FEELING ADJ. ) The supplied hexagonal Allen driver can be used to adjust the hexagonal Allen screw located next to the top panel's cross fader slider opening, thus modifying the sliding resistance of the lever. The mechanical play (the lag or range of movement in which no functional effect takes place) at the two extreme ends of the top panel cross fader lever movement can be adjusted by using the front panel's FADER CUT LAG dial, within a range of 1 - 6 mm. The front panel's FADER CURVE dials can be used to adjust the attenuation curve response of the cross fader and channel fader. The cross fader can be adjusted independently for CH-1 and CH-2 sides. By pressing the top panel's FADER CURVE/BANK EDIT button, the adjustment status can be displayed on the touch panel. Cross fader cut lag dimension display Affichage de dimension du retard de coupure au fondu croisé The operating directions of the CH-1, CH-2 and cross fader levers can be reversed by setting the front panel's FADER REVERSE switches to their [ON] positions. When the CH-1 (or CH-2) FADER REVERSE switch is set to [ON], the top panel CH-1 (or CH-2) REVERSE indicator lights, and the corresponding lever's operating direction is reversed (scale mark "0" becomes attenuation 0 dB, while scale mark "10" becomes minus infinity). FADER REVERSE switch is set to [ON], the top panel's cross fader REVERSE indicator lights, and the lever operating direction is reversed (left side becomes CH-2 and right side becomes CH-1). When the CH-1 and CH-2 jacks of this unit are connected to a separately sold Pioneer DJ CD player (models CDJ-1000, CDJ1000MK2, CDJ-800, CDJ-100S, CDJ-500S, CDJ-500II, CMX3000, CMX-5000, or DMP-555), the channel fader and cross fader functions can be used to automatically start playback of the connected CD player (the applicable control cord must be connected). By moving the mixer's channel fader or cross fader lever, the CD player's pause function is released and play starts instantly. Also, by returning the fader lever to its original position, the CD player can be returned to its cue point (back cue function), thus allowing sampling playback. Cross fader start play and back cue play When the CH-1 CD player is held in standby at the cue point, merely moving the cross fader lever from the right (CH-2) side to the left (CH-1) side will cause the CH-1 CD player to begin playback. When the cross fader lever reaches the left (CH-1) side, CH-2 CD player performs back cue (returns to its cue point). Likewise, when the CH-2 CD player is in standby at its cue point, moving the cross fader lever from the left (CH-1) side to the right (CH-2) side causes CH-2 CD player to begin playback. When the cross fader lever reaches the right (CH-2) side, CH-1 CD player performs back cue. FADER OPERATIONS Start playback with channel fader 1 To control a connected CD player, set the front panel FADER START selector switch for the corresponding channel to its [CH-1] or [CH-2] position. When using the CH-1 fader lever to start the CH-1 CD player, set the front panel C. 1/CH-1 switch to the [CH-1] position; when using the CH-2 fader lever to start the CH-2 CD player, set the front panel C. 4 Adjust the CD player to its cue point and set for cue point standby. 5 Begin moving the channel fader lever with the timing you wish, thereby beginning playback on the CD player. If the cue point has already been set, there is no need to set the CD player again for standby at the cue point. [. . . ] (*1) When the channel fader or cross fader is used to lowering sound volume, no effect sounds will be heard, even if monitor SELECT switch is set to the [EFFECT] position. (*2) When EFFECT switch is turned OFF, no effect sounds will be heard even if the monitor SELECT switch is set to the [EFFECT] position.
