Fig. 3.1: The BCD3000’s control elements
Control surface3.1
The microphone input section (MIC INPUT)
Set the volume of the microphone signal with the [1] MIC LEVEL control.
The [2] CLIP LED illuminates as soon as the microphone signal level is too high
and could possibly cause audible distortion. If this happens, slightly turn the
MIC LEVEL control counter-clockwise.
The microphone input section has a 2-band equalizer ([3] EQ HIGH for high
frequencies and EQ LOW for low frequencies).
Select the input source with the buttons [4] EXT IN A / EXT IN B. If the buttons
are not pressed (LEDs are off), the Deck A and B signals in the TRAKTOR 3 LE
software are played back. If you press one of the buttons (LEDs light up),
the analog input signal of the BCD3000 is passed on to the corresponding
deck in the TRAKTOR software. On Deck A, the Phono input A [36] or
microphone signal is played back. On Deck B, you hear the input B signal
(Phono or CD).
You can either specify the input source for Deck A in the Control
Panel (Windows only) or with MIDI commands (see Chapter 6.3).
For Deck B, select the input source on the rear panel of the device
(Phono/Line switch [38]).
The FX CONTROL section
This section allows you to select and control effects with the BCD3000. In the
manual of the TRAKTOR 3 LE software (as PDF in the TRAKTOR 3 LE folder under
“Documentation”), you can find the available effects.
The [9] ON button activates the effects section.
The [10] FX button switches to the preceding available effect.
The [11] FX button switches to the next available effect.
The assignment of the four controls [5][8] and the ACTION button [12] depends
on the selected effect.
