Numark VirtualVinyl Manuel D'utilisation Simplifié page 9

Relative – In this mode, the software will track the relative movement of the record (forward,
backward) but will not track the position of the within the control timecode. So, for example, you
will not be able to seek to another location of the song by picking up the needle and dropping it
on another part of the record. This mode is perfect for scratch DJs since it allows you to scratch
without worrying about the needle skipping around on the record – the software will compensate
for any skip that might occur. In this mode, you are also allowed to use some additional
software features, such as looping and cue points.
Smart (default) – This is the default timecode tracking mode and is the mode that we
recommend most users use. In Smart mode, you have the ability to do needle drops but can
also use the additional features of the software, such as pitch, loops and cue points.
4. Lead Time – Specifies when the time-code signal begins playing the song, by moving the point
at which the track begins to a position further into the vinyl. For example, this is useful if your
records have cue burn in the beginning. Simply set the lead time to another bumber.
5. Pitch Sensitivity – This is the time that it takes the waveform on the silkscreen to become
adjusted after you alter the pitch of the timecode signal. Too small of a value will attempt to
redraw the waveform when you scratch the timecode, which is not recommended. Setting too
high of a value will take longer to redraw the waveform, which may be visually confusing.
Please experiment with a few different values to find the one best suited for your style.
6. Anti Skip – If enabled, anti skip will prevent playback from skipping if the needle happens to
jump to another groove. Please note that anti-skip is only available under Smart or Relative
modes.
7. Smart Cue – If enabled, moving the needle far to a different location on the timecode record
(over more than one groove segment away) will cause the software to automatically jump to the
next set cue point (forward or backward), instead of jumping to the absolute location where you
drop the needle.
8. Master Tempo – If enabled, the software will time-stretch, instead of pitch shift, the music
playing on the deck when you change the pitch of the timecode signal. In other words, the
Master Tempo features as a Keylock, allowing you to change the tempo of the music without
altering its pitch.
9. Browser Track – If enabled, Browser Track allows you to use the timecode signal to browse
through your music in the software. With Browser Track feature enabled, the last three groove
segments become dedicated to browsing, so when you drop the needle onto one of these
segments, you can scroll through your music titles by moving the record forward and backward.
10. Arrows – Pressing one of the arrows will copy the timecode preferences from the selected deck
to the other deck.
The following settings (11-17) will be set by the Auto-Config feature so you do not have
to worry about understanding them. The software will automatically configure them for
you:
11. Gain – The gain compensation for the timecode signal.
12. Silence – Compensates for background/ambient noise by lowering/raising the noise floor
threshold.
13. Software RIAA Preamp – If enabled, allows you to plug a phono-level turntable directly into a
line-level input on the VirtualVinyl box.
14. Invert Stereo – Virtually switches the left and right inputs and, in effect, reverses playback.
15. Invert Phase – Software adjustment if you have happened to wire your needle incorrectly.
16. TC Up – Level of "1" value in the binary signal of the timecode
17. TC Down – Level of "0" value in the binary signal of the timecode.
