[. . . ] Button is red: a simple cue point is loaded Button is green: a loop is loaded If you like you can store the contents of these HOT CUE buttons to the internal permanent memory. Look further is this manual for more information on how to program cue points etc. NOTE: When you put another CD in the disc tray without first writing the current HOT CUE memories to the internal permanent memory, they will be erased. SPEED Button: This button is used to turn the speed function on and off. BIG JOG WHEEL: This jog wheel serves 3 functions depending on the mode you are working in. The jog wheel acts as a slow frame search (1/75sec) control when the CD is not playing but either paused or set to a cue point. To set a new cue point, spin the wheel then press PLAY(8) or LOOP IN(3) when you have determined the proper position. If the track is playing, the jog wheel temporarily bends the pitch of the music up to +/100% by rotating the wheel clockwise to speed it up or counterclockwise to slow it down. In scratch mode the jog wheel is used to manipulate the playback of the music in real time. As a result you can scratch the music on your CD the way you do this with a normal analog vinyl record. MAINS INPUT: connect the CD player to the 230V AC mains, using the supplied power-cord. ANTI SHOCK AND BUFFER INDICATOR: The memory status is represented on the display by a bucket being filled up or emptied. Each segment within the bucket represents about 2 seconds of anti shock protection. PITCH DISPLAY: Shows the actual percentage of speed change, selected with the SPEED slider(15). Starts flashing at the end of each track to alert the user to take action. SINGLE: appears when the unit is set to play just one track at a time. The marker moves clockwise in normal play mode and counter-clockwise when the track plays backwards. AUTO BPM: This indicator is always on present to indicate that the automatic beat counter is working. PITCH LOCK: when Master Tempo is active, the display shows a small "lock" to indicate that the pitch of the music is locked. For Audio CD's CD-TEXT information will be shown when it's available on the CD, otherwise the display shows "no CD-TEXT". BPM: The automatic beat counter shows the number of Beats Per Minute on the display. RELAY FUNCTION: First check if the special fader start cable connects the two MCD200 players. [. . . ] New parameter is OK: press the MEMORY-button (9) until the display shows "SAVING" to save this new setting to the permanent settings of the unit. Now the new pitch bend parameter will be preserved, even when you turn the CD-player off. When the MCD200 detects these CD-TEXT data, the display will show them automatically. When no CD-TEXT is available the display shows "no CD-TEXT". [. . . ]
