Storing discs

Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conventional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow discs to warp. Always store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding locations with high heat, humidity, or extremely low temperatures. Avoid leaving discs in cars; the interior of a car in direct sunlight can become extremely hot. Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on disc labels.
Do not place on or against vibrating materials!

Condensation

When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously cold surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply, condensation may form inside the unit and impair its performance. In such cases, allow the unit to stand for about an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.
Cleaning and handling compact discs
The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of the disc will not directly affect the recorded signals, but, depending on the degree of contamination, the brightness of the light reflected from the signal surfaces may be reduced causing degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer edge.

FORCED DISC EJECTION

If the EJECT button fails to work and it becomes impossible to eject a disc, the disc may be ejected by inserting the disc ejection pin in the manual disc ejection hole located on the front panel of the player. Always be sure to observe the following points when manually ejecting discs. 1 Be sure to turn off the power to the CD player and wait for 1 minute or more before ejecting the disc. Manually ejecting a disc immediately after the power to the unit has been turned off may result in one of the following problems from occurring, and care should accordingly be taken never to eject discs immediately after the power has been turned off. The disc will still be spinning when it is ejected, thus resulting in cuts to the fingers or other forms of bodily injury. The disc clamps will spin in an unstable state, thus resulting in scratching of discs. 2 Be sure to use only the disc ejection pin included with your CMX-5000 (i.e., never use a paper clip or any other object). Inserting the disc ejection pin into the hole until it encounters resistance will cause the disc to be ejected some 5 to 10 millimeters from the insertion slot. The disc may then be removed by grasping it by hand and pulling.

FEATURES

The Pioneer CMX-5000 is a twin CD player designed for use by DJs which provides not only the features and performance required in a discotheque sound system in a CD player but also provides new features only possible in a CD player.

AUTO MIXING

With a new sensor system developed exclusively by Pioneer, the CMX-5000 can measure beat timing and the number of BPM and can automatically remix tracks in a specified order.

PLAYING ADDRESS

Bar graph display which makes it possible to gain an intuitive feel of the elapsed and remaining play time of a track in progress To make it possible to gain the same sort of intuitive feel of the elapsed and remaining play time as possible by looking at the position of a needle on an analog record, the CMX-5000 uses a bar graph display which makes it possible to gain an instantaneous visual feel of the elapsed and remaining play time of a track in progress. The length of a bar makes it possible to instantly check the current position and the display also flashes to provide a warning when it nears the end of a track.

Three playback modes

There are three playback modes: DISC mode, TRACK mode, and PROGRAM mode.
Wide variety of different types of mixing
There are four different types of mixing: cut-in mixing, echo mixing, zip mixing, and cross-fade mixing.
Shortened playback time feature which can be used to shorten track playback time

QUICK START CUEING

A wide variety of cueing capabilities

Back cueing

The CMX-5000 comes with a CUE button which can be pressed after a track has begun to play to return to the cueing point and resume play from there.

Auto cueing

A quick start button which may be pressed during a pause to start playback virtually instantaneously (delay time of less than 0.01 seconds) While ordinary CD players require up to 0.3 seconds for playback to begin from a pause state, the CMX-5000 virtually eliminates this delay, thus making it possible to segue smoothly from one track to the next.
Auto cueing may be used to automatically skip the silent portion at the head of each track and stand by just before the point where sound begins. The PLAY button may then be pressed to instantaneously start the track.
REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOPING
Seamless looping feature which makes it possible to set the loop starting point in real time Able to be used to easily specify and remove loop settings, this feature can be used to specify loop settings instantly while a track is playing as soon as one recognizes the point from which one wishes to start the loop. It is also possible to create a loop from just before the end of a track to keep the track from ending. The CMX-5000 also comes with a new adjustment mode which makes it possible to change the end point of a loop with the press of a single button, thus making looping easier to use than ever.

AUTO CUE: (see p. 12) When unit is first powered on, auto cueing is set to on.

4 Tempo controls (TEMPO)

CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING

Location

Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will not be exposed to high temperatures or humidity. Do not install the unit in a location which is exposed to direct rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation of the unit in a damp or dusty environment may also result in a malfunction or accident. (Avoid installation near cookers etc., where the unit may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.) When the unit is used inside a carrying case or DJ booth, separate it from the walls or other equipment to improve heat radiation.

Condensation

When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously cold surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply, condensation may form inside, and the unit may not be able to attain its full performance. In cases like this, allow the unit to stand for about an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.

Cleaning the Unit

Use a polishing cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. When the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never use thinners, benzene, insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit, since these will corrode the surfaces.
Installing the DJM-3000 in an EIA rack

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 musics original BPM, which DJs require, and displays it digitally. Thus, BPM can now be checked not only aurally, as was conventional, but also visually, enabling quicker, simpler mixing of music with different tempos. Use of the TAP switch to input the beat manually makes it possible to set BPM for music for which it is difficult to measure (a capella, improvisation, etc.).
Beat Effector (Effects linked to BPM)
Links various effects to the BPM calculated with the aforementioned AUTO BPM COUNTER to enable unprecedented sound production. 1. DELAY (one sound repeated) Quickly and easily mixes delayed sounds of 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1 and 8/1 beats. Mixing with 1/2-beat-delayed sound, for example, will change the beat from 4 to 8. Mixing with a 3/4-beat-delayed sound will change the rhythm to a bouncy one. Example: Original (4 beats) 3. Auto Pan [PAN (L-R BALANCE)] Automatically pans sound to the left and right (auto beat pan) to the rhythm of a 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1 or 8/1 beat. Short auto pan, for panning sound to the left and right in a short time that cannot be covered manually, is also possible. Example: Auto Beat Pan

Center (Stereo)

1 cycle = 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1 or 8/1 beat 1/2 delay (8 beats) Center (Stereo) 2. ECHO (repeated sounds) Quickly and easily mixes echoes of 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1 and 8/1beats. When input sound is cut with a 1/1-beat echo, for example, the music will fade out while sounds are repeated that match the beat. When a 1/1-beat echo is imposed on the microphone, microphone sound will be played repeatedly, matching the beat. Troll (musical round-type) effects can be produced by imposing a 1/1-beat echo on song vocals. Example:
Short Auto Pan 4. Auto Trans (TRANS) Automatically cuts sound to the rhythm of a 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1 or 8/1 beat. Example: Cut Cut
Time 1 cycle = 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1/1, 2/1, 4/1 or 8/1 beat
Beat 1 beat 1 beat Cuts the input sound

Fade out

5. FILTER Changes the tone greatly by shifting the filters 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. As the speed of analog-record turntables and CD players changes as a percent, interval changes can be corrected on a percent basis. Applying the pitch shifter to microphone sound produces voice changer effects. Mixing with original sound produces a choral effect.
9. Send/Return (SND/RTN: External effect input/output) Makes diverse effects possible through connection to available effectors, samplers, etc.

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). Precautions: If the channel has been changed with the Effect CH. SELECT switch when delay, echo, reverb (pages 16 and 17) and similar effects have been turned on, all of the reverberation of the prior channels effects will be output. Only operate the Effect selector switch when effects are off (when the Effect ON/OFF switch is lit orange). Operating it with effects on could generate noise.

Fader Start Play (To Use Fade-in Operation with a Connected CD Player) Fader start play will be possible when the unit has been connected with control cords to the CMX-3000, CMX5000, CDJ-1000, CDJ-100S, CDJ-700S, and CDJ-500 II CD players for DJs. In other words, when the DJ mixers channel fader or cross fader volume is turned up, the CD players pause function will be released, and the music will start automatically and instantly. In addition, because the CD player can be restored to the cue point when the fader is returned to its original position, sampler-type play is also possible. Cross Fader Start Play and Back Cue Play When A is at the cue point during standby, it can be started simply by moving the Cross fader lever from the right (B) side to the left (A) side. B will back cue (return to the cue point) at the same time. Moreover, when B is at the cue point during standby, it can be started simply by moving the Cross fader lever from the left (A) side to the right (B) side. (A will back cue at the same time.)

If the settings of the CROSS FADER ASSIGN switches A/ B are changed after setting the EFFECT MIX selector switch to FADER, the corresponding channels FADER START switch will automatically turn ON.
5 Use the Effect select/start switches to choose the desired effect (ECHO, ZIP, ROLL).
The selected Effect select/start switch will flash and the others will light steadily. Two or more effects cannot be selected at the same time. The BEAT EFFECTs effect PARAMETER controls can be used to modify the effect time settings.
4 Use the Effect select/start switches to choose the desired effect (ECHO, ZIP, ROLL).
The selected Effect select/start switch will flash and the others will light steadily. If the Effect select/start switch is pressed during output of the A side sound, the selected effect will be applied to A, and after the preset effect time has elapsed, sound B will be output. If the Effect select/start switch is pressed during output of the B side sound, the selected effect will be applied to B, and after the preset effect time has elapsed, sound A will be output. [Operation if Cross fader lever is midway when the Effect Mix Auto mode is turned on] If the Effect select/start switch is pressed when both A and B sounds are being output, the selected effect will be applied to B, and after the preset effect time has elapsed, sound A will be output. If the Cross fader lever is moved toward either side A or B when both A and B sounds are being output, the ordinary cross fader operation will occur. Two or more effects cannot be selected at the same time. The BEAT EFFECTs effect PARAMETER controls can be used to modify the effect time settings. In the Effect Mix Auto mode, the Cross fader lever cannot be used to control sound. The CROSS FADER CURVE selector switch will also be disabled, and BEAT EFFECTS cannot be used.
2 Set the Cross fader lever to the Effect Mix Auto mode starting position.

Sound is distorted.

Cant use cross fading.
CROSS FADER ASSIGN A and B switches havent been set correctly. FADER START switch is off. The rear panel CONTROL terminal hasnt been connected. Effect CH. SELECT switch hasnt been set correctly. Effect PARAMETER 2 control (LEVEL/ DEPTH) was set to the minimum (MIN.). The input level from the external effector is too high.
CD players fader wont start.

Effects dont work.

External effectors sound distorted.
Cant measure BPM. Measured BPM values are strange.
Input level is too high or too low.
BPM cant be measured in some cases, depending on the music. Measured BPM value differs from value indicated on CD. Cant use CH-4s PHONO 4 input terminal. Cant apply effect mix. Because of different BPM measurement methods, somewhat different values may be indicated. A microphone has been connected to MIC 3. ASSIGN A and B switches are set to the same channel. ASSIGN A and B switches are both set to THRU.
Disconnect the microphone from MIC 3. Set ASSIGN A and B switches to different channels (1-4) Set ASSIGN A and B switches to different channels (1-4)
