7 Use the CROSS FADER curve switch to select the cross

fader curve response.

¶ At the left setting, the curve produces a rapid signal rise. (As

soon as the cross fader lever leaves the [A] side, the [B] channel
sound is produced.)

¶ At the right setting, the curve operates to produce an even,

neutral rise throughout the cross fader’s movement.

¶ At the middle setting, an intermediate curve is produced,

midway between the two curves noted above.

¶ This setting produces equal curve effects for both sides A and

B.

FADER START FUNCTION

By connecting the optional Pioneer DJ CD Player control cable, the
channel fader and cross fader can be used to start CD playback.
When the mixer’s channel fader lever or cross fader lever are moved,
the CD player is released from the pause mode and automatically –
and instantly – begins playback of the selected track. Also, when the
fader lever is returned to its original position, the CD player returns to
its cue point (back cue), thus allowing “sampler” type play.

Cross fader start play and back cue play

When the CD player assigned to cross fader channel A is set to
standby at a cue point, moving the cross fader lever from the right (B)
side toward the left (A) side automatically starts play on the channel
A CD player.
When the cross fader lever reaches the left (A) side, the CD player
assigned to channel B goes to back cue (returns to cue point). Also,
when the CD player assigned to channel B is set to standby at a cue
point, moving the cross fader lever from the left (A) side to the right
(B) side automatically starts playback on the channel B CD player.
When the cross fader lever reaches the right (B) side, the CD player
assigned to channel A goes to back cue (returns to cue point).
* The back cue is performed even if the input selector switch is not

set to [CD/DIGITAL] or [LINE/DIGITAL].
