If the Deck is paused, you can press and hold the Cue Button to play the track from the
Temporary Cue Point. Releasing the Cue Button will return the track to the Temporary Cue
Point and pause it. To continue playback without returning to the Temporary Cue Point, press
and hold the Cue Button, then press and hold the Play Button, and then release both buttons.
Press and hold Shift and then press this button to return to the beginning of the track.
21. Sync: Press this button to automatically match the corresponding Deck's tempo with the
opposite Deck's tempo and phase. Press and hold Shift and press this button to deactivate
Sync.
22. Bleep / Reverse: Reverses audio playback of the track on the corresponding deck.
When the switch is in the Reverse position, the playback of the track will be reversed.
Returning the switch to its center (deactivated) position will resume normal playback from
wherever the Audio Pointer stops.
When the switch is in the Bleep position, the playback of the track will be reversed. Returning
the switch to its center (deactivated) position will resume normal playback from where it
would have been if you had never engaged the Bleep function (i.e., as if the track had been
playing forward the whole time).
Cue Controls
23. Hot Cue Buttons (1-5): Assigns a Hot Cue Point or returns the track to that Hot Cue Point.
When a Hot Cue Button is unlit, you can assign a Hot Cue Point by pressing it at the desired
point in your track. Once it is assigned, the Hot Cue Button will light. To return to that Hot
Cue Point, simply press it.
Press and hold Shift and then press a Hot Cue Button to delete its assigned Hot Cue Point.
Tip: If the Deck is paused, holding a lit Hot Cue Button will start playback from that Hot Cue
Point. Releasing it will return the track to that Hot Cue Point and pause playback.
Pad Mode Controls
24. Pads: These pads have different functions
on each Deck depending on the current Pad
Mode. These pads are the same pads used
with Akai Professional MPCs, so they are
velocity-sensitive (in certain modes only),
durable, and easy to play.
In this section, when referring to specific
pads, it will refer to the numbers as shown in
the diagram on the right.
25. Parameter < / > : Use these buttons for various functions in each Pad Mode (described
below).
