MATCHING THE BEATS PER MINUTE (BPM)
Match the tempo by monitoring the music of both PLAYER 1 and PLAYER 2 by ear and adjusting the pitch. When the tempo of the music of
the selected CD player is slow compared to the tempo of the other player, move the slider to the ( + ) side and match the tempo. When
faster, move the pitch slider to the ( - ) side. The following illustration shows the case of matching the pitch of PLAYER 2 to the pitch of
the music being played on PLAYER 1.
1. Press PLAY/PAUSE to start PLAYER 1.
PLAYER 1 is playing
2. Press PLAY/PAUSE to start PLAYER 2
Both CD players are playing discs.
3. Listen to PLAYER 2 in your headphones. If the beat of channel 2 (in the headphones) is faster than channel
1, slow down the beat of channel 2 using the pitch control.
4. If the beat of channel 2 (in the headphones) slower than the beat of channel 1, speed up the beat using the
pitch control.
BEAT MATCHING USING PITCH BEND
If you find the BPM’s (Beats Per Minute or Tempos) are the same, however, the drum beats are not matched you will need to
temporarily change the pitch. The illustration below shows how to match the beat of PLAYER 2 to the beat of the music being played
on PLAYER 1. (This procedure can be done on either PLAYER).
After matching the BPM’s adjust the pitch temporarily as follows:
When PLAYER 2 is rotate the jog wheel counter clockwise
When PLAYER 2 is behind rotate the jog wheel clockwise
The pitch changes automatically while the jog wheel is rotated. The faster you rotate the wheel the more you change. Releasing the
wheel results in a return to the original pitch. (So the BPM’s are once again the same.)
