Center click position is provided for flat response.
PART NAMES AND FUNCTIONS - LOW control (low-range equalizer) Use to adjust low-range frequency of input. When the dial is set to the center click setting, flat response is provided. Rotate clockwise to increase response (to +12 dB), and rotate counterclockwise to decrease response (to –26 dB). = H.P CUE (Headphones cue switch) When this switch is pressed it lights orange and the corresponding channel is output to headphones.
PART NAMES AND FUNCTIONS « ∞ § ¶ • ª º – ⁄ ¤ ‹ › ≠ Ÿ fi Å fl ‡ ° · « BEAT EFFECTS Controls ∞ 1-4 (Channel displays) Displays the channel selected for BPM count. § AUTO BPM COUNTER When AUTO BPM is selected with the Effect selector switch (⁄), displays the BPM of the channel (CH-1 to CH4) selected with the H.P CUE switch (=). The indicator flashes during counting, or if it is unable to count BPM.
PART NAMES AND FUNCTIONS ≠ Effect beat selector switches (@, #) Use this switch to change the value of Effect PARAMETER 1 control (‹) in accordance with the BPM of the source selected with the Effect CH. SELECT switch (¤). The setting value of this switch differs depending on the setting of the Effect selector switch (⁄). ¶ When DELAY, ECHO, PAN, or TRANS are selected, the parameter 1 value for the BPM of the selected source can be set to 1/4 beat, 1/2 beat, 1/1 beat, 2/1 beat, 4/1 beat, or 8/1 beat.
USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS With the built-in digital signal processor (DSP), sound effects can be enjoyed and BPM measured. Features of Various Effectors AUTO BPM COUNTER Automatically measures music BPM (beats per minute; tempo) and displays it digitally. It not only counts the beat of bass sounds but also calculates (using a computer) the music’s original BPM, which DJs require, and displays it digitally.
USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS 5. FILTER Changes the tone greatly by shifting the filter’s frequency in units of 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32 beats. Example Frequency 1 cycle = 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 beat 6. FLANGER Quickly and easily produces 1-cycle flanger effect for beats of 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32. Example Short delay 1 cycle = 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 or 32 beat 7. REVERB Produces a reverberation effect. 8. PITCH (Pitch Shifter) Shifts interval (pitch or key) within a range of ±1 octave.
USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS Delay, Echo, Auto Pan, Auto Trans, Filter, and Flanger Operations Items Set for Each Effect Effect Effect Parameter 1 (TIME) Effect Parameter 2 (LEVEL/DEPTH) DELAY Delay time Setting range: 1 to 3500mSec, in 1msec steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and delayed sound levels) ECHO Delay time Setting range: 1 to 3500mSec, in 1msec steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and echo sound levels) PAN (Auto pan) Pan time (changeover time) Setting range: 1
USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS 1 Set the Effect selector switch to DELAY. 2 Set the Effect CH. SELECT switch to 2. ÷ The Effect parameter/BPM display LED “2” will light. ÷ The BPM of the music input to CH-2 will be displayed on the AUTO BPM COUNTER. * The BPM band that matches the music on CH-2 can be selected with the BPM counter range selector switch. * The counter will flash if BPM cannot be counted for more than 2 seconds. In this case, use manual mode to make settings (see page 19).
USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS Operating Reverb and Pitch Shifter Effector Settings Effect Effect Parameter 1 (TIME) Effect Parameter 2 (LEVEL/DEPTH) REVERB Reverb time (echo time) Setting range: 1 to 100%, in 1% steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and reverb sound levels) PITCH (Pitch Shifter) Pitch Setting range: 0 to ±100%, in 1% steps Effect mix ratio (Balance between original and pitch-shifted sound levels) Example: Display when music on CH-3 has been pitch-shifted 90%.
USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS 4 Turn the Effect ON/OFF switch on. ÷ The Effect ON/OFF switch will flash orange and the effect (pitch shift) will be applied to master output. ÷ If the switch is pressed once more, the effect will turn off. ÷ Display when CH-3 has been pitch-shifted by 90%. BPM display Reverb can be set similarly. Precautions: ÷ If the channel has been changed with the Effect CH.
BPM COUNTING Using the Auto Mode to Count BPM This mode counts and displays the BPM of the channel selected with the H.P CUE switch and (when Effect selector switch is set to AUTO BPM, the CH-1 to CH-4 H.P CUE switch becomes the AUTO BPM COUNTER’s channel select switch) the channel selected with the Effect CH. SELECT switch, thus making it easy to synchronize two tracks with different speeds (count range 70.0-180.0 BPM). Example: Display of BPM for CH-1 selected with H.
BPM COUNTING Using the Manual Mode to Count BPM 7 When BPM cannot be counted in AUTO BPM mode: If auto BPM counting is not possible, use the TAP switch for manual input. ÷ When the TAP switch is pressed in time to the music’s beat, the light in the BPM counter range display will turn off and manual mode will go into effect. ÷ The BPM value input with the TAP switch will be displayed on the Effect parameter/BPM display’s counter (lower side), and the BPM display’s counter (upper side) will turn off.
USING THE FADER START FUNCTION If the separately sold CMX-3000, CMX-5000, CDJ-1000, CDJ-100S, CDJ-700S and CDJ-500 II players are connected to CH-1 – CH4, they can be started using the Channel fader lever or Cross fader lever, as long as the control cords have been connected.
USING THE FADER START FUNCTION Starting with the Channel Fader 1 Turn on the FADER START switch (CH-1, CH-2, CH-3 or CH-4) of the channel connected to the CD player to be controlled. The indicator for the selected channel will light. The following is an example of starting a CD player connected to CH-1. Example: FADER START switch 2 Push the Channel fader lever all the way to the bottom. 3 Set a cue point on the CD player, and set the unit to standby (pause) at the cue point.
USING THE EFFECT MIX FUNCTION When this mixer is combined with separately purchased CD players (CMX-3000, CMX-5000, CDJ-1000, CDJ-100S, CDJ-700S or CDJ-500II), the Cross fader lever can be operated to produced automatic linked fade-in and fade-out sound from Player A to Player B. If desired, the effect mode can be employed for simultaneous linked operation (requires connection of control cord). These operations can be performed by means of a single button.
USING THE EFFECT MIX FUNCTION Selecting the Effect Mix Function Use the EFFECT MIX selector switch to select the desired operation mode. OFF: Normal mode ¶ No Effect Mix operation. ¶ All three Effect select/start switches (ECHO, ZIP, ROLL) will remain unlighted. ¶ The cross fader left-right Fader displays A and B will both be unlighted. FADER: Effect Mix Fader Mode ¶ The Cross fader lever can be used to manipulate effects, and to perform cue start/back cue.

USING THE EFFECT MIX FUNCTION Effect Mix Auto Mode 1 Using the CROSS FADER ASSIGN switches (A and B) choose the channel (CH1–CH4) connected to the CD player you wish to use with cross fader effects. ¶ Be sure to assign different channels to the CROSS FADER ASSIGN switches A and B. 2 Set the Cross fader lever to the Effect Mix Auto mode starting position. In the Effect Mix Auto mode, the way the sound is initially heard is determined by the position of the Cross fader lever.
