the music genres (techno, slows, salsa ...), the BPM count (100BPM, 110BPM,
120BPM ...) or any other idea you have to sort your music...
With the FOLDER / TRACK selectors you can easily browse through the different
folders and tracks. You can put the MCD200 in FOLDER mode and TRACK mode:
• FOLDER MODE: use the FOLDER selector to select the desired folder. With
the TRACK selector you can select the desired MP3 track in this folder. Note
that you can only select tracks inside the selected folder. To go to another folder
just use the FOLDER selector.
• TRACK MODE: To select track mode, just press the TRACK selector shortly:
you will be able to browse all the tracks on your CD as if no subfolders where
present. To move quickly (by 10tracks) through the CD, press the TRACK
selector while turning it forward/backward. To turn back to folder mode, press or
turn the FOLDER selector.
• RELAY FUNCTION:
• First check if the special fader start cable connects the two MCD200 players.
• Put a disc in both players.
• Open the 2 channel faders of the corresponding CD inputs on your mixer.
• Check if both players are in Single mode (the "single" indicator(13) on the
display appears). If one of the players is not in single mode, press its SGL/CNT
button(17) of that player.
• Begin playback on one of the two players.
• Alternately a track will be played from both players. You can always put a new
CD in the player that is waiting in pause. In this way you can create an endless
program, perfect for use in pubs etc.
Remove the relay cable if you don't want to use the relay function anymore.
• CREATE A LOOP:
While a track is playing, press IN/R.CUE button to program the starting point of the
loop. Now press the OUT/EXIT button to program the endpoint of the loop. The
seamless loop starts playing at once. (With some practice you will be able to create
perfect loops!) While the loop is playing, you can press the OUT/EXIT button again
to exit the loop and continue the rest of the track.
It is possible to program a new loop, even when the current loop is still playing.
While the loop is playing, simply press the IN/R.CUE button to set the starting point
of the new loop. Now enter the endpoint by pressing the OUT/EXIT button. Your
new loop is programmed and playing.
• RESTART A LOOP:
This can be done in 3 ways:
• When a loop is programmed and you left it by pressing the OUT/EXIT button,
just press RELOOP to restart the loop.
• When a loop is programmed and you left it by pressing the OUT/EXIT button,
just press OUT/EXIT again to restart the loop. The point where you pressed
OUT/EXIT is now programmed as the new endpoint of the loop.
• When the loop is still playing, press the RELOOP button to restart the loop
immediately. You can repeat this several times to create a "Stutter" effect.

• EDIT A LOOP:
When a loop is programmed, press the RELOOP/STUTTER button for about 2
seconds to enter "loop edit" mode. While the loop is seamlessly playing, the
alphanumerical display shows the time information of the loop endpoint. Use the big
jog wheel to set the new loop endpoint. To make things very easy you can hear
your modifications to the loop endpoint continuously. When the loop is perfect,
press the LOOP OUT button to save the new loop endpoint and leave the loop.
NOTE: You can store loops under the HOT CUE buttons. This means that you have up to 4 loops
per track to play with. In the next paragraph you learn how to store these loops.
• STORING A MASTER CUE POINT:
There are 2 ways to set a master cue point:
• Press the IN/R.CUE button during normal playback to set the new cue point
("CUE on the fly").
• Put the player in pause and use the jog/shuttle wheel to search for the exact
location for the cue point. Once this location is found, press "IN/R. CUE" button
to set the new cue point. (or press PLAY/PAUSE button)
Once the cue point is programmed, just press the CUE button to recall it.
• STORING A SIMPLE CUE POINT TO THE "HOT CUE" BUTTONS:
First press the MEMORY button(9) to make the unit enter hot cue memory mode
(MEMORY button is lit).
• Press one of the four HOT CUE buttons at the right moment during normal
playback: the HOT CUE button you just pressed turns to red colour to indicate
that the desired cue point is stored. ("Cue on the fly").
• Put the player in pause and use the jog/shuttle wheel to search for the exact
location for the cue point. Once this location is found, press one of the four HOT
CUE buttons to set the new cue point: the HOT CUE button you just pressed
turns to red colour to indicate that the desired cue point is stored.
Once the cue point is programmed, just press the HOT CUE button to start
playback from the stored cue point.
• STORING A LOOP TO THE "HOT CUE" BUTTONS:
This is very similar to storing a simple cue point. The only difference is that you
have to put the MCD200 in loop mode first. When the loop is playing, you press the
MEMORY button to make the CD-player enter hot cue memory mode (MEMORY
button is lit). After this press one of the four HOT CUE buttons: the HOT CUE
button you just pressed turns to green colour to indicate that the loop, playing at
that moment, is stored. You can store up to 4 loops!
• STORING HOT CUE MEMORIES TO THE PERMANENT INTERNAL MEMORY:
For each CD you can store up to 4 cue points and loops to the internal permanent
memory. At a later time you can recall these cue points and loops when you insert
the same CD again. The MCD200 can hold up to 2048 (512 x 4) Cue points and
loops. Writing the contents of the HOT CUE buttons to permanent memory is very
simple: just press the MEMORY button for about 2 seconds until the display shows
"SAVING". That's all!
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 lost.
