5.11.1 Scratch effects

For creating scratch effects (corresponding to
manual turning of a turntable platter), press the
button SCRATCH (6) and turn the jog wheel (16)
back and forth accordingly. The LED of the but-
ton will light up and the text line (O) will show
"SCRATCH". To deactivate the effect, press the
button SCRATCH once again.

5.11.2 Droning effects

If the function Master Tempo (constant pitch)
has been activated [indication "MT" (S) on the
display], deactivate it with the button MT (24).
Turn the jog wheel (16) back and forth to
increase or decrease the replay speed alter-
nately. This will create a droning effect.

5.11.3 Stutter effects

The Cue points stored with the buttons CUE
(18), CUE 1 and CUE 2 (11) [
can also be used to create interesting stutter
effects: When one of these buttons is shortly
pressed several times, a stutter effect will be cre-
ated. The more suitable the Cue point (e. g. start
of an instrument or beginning of a word), the
more impressive the effect.

seamless continuous loop as many times as

6 Fader Start

The function Start / Pause of the button
can be remote-controlled via a mixer with fader
start function. The connection to the mixer is
described in chapter 4, step 3. Adjust the sliding
switch (34) on the rear side of the player mecha-
nism to the type of fader start of the mixer:
LOCK = control via an on / off switch
This switch position must be selected for
most mixers of the "img Stage Line" range.
By advancing the fader, a switch starting the
replay will be closed in the mixer. When the
fader is closed, the switch will open and thus
set the player unit to pause.
