These functions are explained in the next section. TRACK (Track Buttons) Used to select the track to be played. Folder/+10 Button Steps up or down through folders on MP3 discs. On a disc which contains no folders, this button advances the track by 10. PROGRAM Depress this button and the unit will stop and the program indicator will light.

PITCH BEND/JOG WHEEL (INNER RING) The jog wheel serves 2 functions depending on the current mode. a) The jog wheel will control a slow frame search when the CD is not playing. To set a new frame cue point, spin the wheel then press play when you have determined the proper position. Press CUE to return to the CUE POINT. b) When both CD players are playing a CD, the pitch bend function allows the positioning of the bass beats to be matched after the pitch of each disc is matched. Either player can catch up or fall back to match the other player. The jog wheel will temporarily bend the pitch of the music if the song is already playing by rotating the wheel clockwise to speed up or counterclockwise to slow down. By changing the pitch of one disc with respect to the pitch of the other disc, the beats can be matched. c) After you press the Previous or Next Track buttons, you can use the wheel to quickly scroll through tracks. This is especially useful on MP3 CDs with a large number of tracks. CUE Pressing the CUE button during play provides a return to the position at which play was started. If PAUSE is used before CUE, that will become the cue point. Alternately pressing the PLAY button and the CUE button allows the CD to be played from the same position any number of times. The CUE LED will light up from the time the CUE button is pressed until the CD has been reset to the position at which play was started. Steady lighting of this LED indicates the ready condition. START/PAUSE (Play/Pause Button) Each press of the Play/Pause Button causes the operation to change from play to pause or from pause to play. LOOP IN Used for setting a start loop point and new cue points during playback. LOOP OUT Used for setting the end loop point and releasing the loop action. RELOOP / STUTTER Depending on mode, as explained further, this button is used for either repeating a previously set loop or seamlessly stuttering on the last set cue point.

NAVIGATING THROUGH MP3 FOLDERS
One way to organize the MP3 files on your CDs is by using Folders. Folders make it easier to find the music you want quickly. The MP302 is set up to navigate folders, making it the ideal tool for the professional DJ. 1. Place an MP3 CD that contains folders into one of the MP302s two CD drives. 2. When the Disc is ready, the LCD display will change from READ to displaying the folder name. 3. Press the FOLDER button. The LCD display will flash FOLDER. Use the TRACK search buttons to scan through the named folders contained on the disc. Press the FOLDER button again to select a folder. LCD display will flash TRACK LIST. 4. You may now search tracks contained within the selected folder using the TRACK search buttons to scan through the tracks contained within the folder. Note that the Track +10 feature is not available with a disc that contains folders. Note: In addition to using the TRACK buttons, you can also use the inner part of the jog wheel to rapidly change tracks. Just press and release either of the TRACK buttons then spin the wheel to select the desired track number. Note: Holding the folder button and pressing the right hand TRACK button will allow you to toggle between displaying the filename of the current mp3 file or displaying the ID3 tag information.
PLAY, PAUSE & CUE OPERATIONS
PLAY & CUE Pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button starts the disc. Pressing the CUE button will reset the disc to the last place where the disc was started. This is called the cue point. By alternately pressing the PLAY/PAUSE button and the CUE button, the disc may be returned and played from the cue point any number of times. This function is called back cue. PLAY, PAUSE & CUE When play has been paused and then started again, the return position for the back cue will be updated to this new position. EDITING CUE POINT When the inner dial is turned while a cue point is set, a new cue point can be located. The CD player will repeatedly play small parts of the CD as you move it to the desired position. By pressing PLAY/PAUSE then CUE you can confirm that the new cue point is desirable.

Back Cue Operation

MATCHING BPMs
Match the tempo by monitoring the music of both PLAYER 1 and PLAYER 2 by ear and adjusting the pitch. When the tempo of the music of the selected CD player is slow compared to the tempo of the other player, move the slider to the ( + ) side and match the tempo. When faster, move the pitch slider to the ( - ) side. The following illustration shows the case of matching the pitch of PLAYER 2 to the pitch of the music being played on PLAYER 1. 1. 2. 3. Press PLAY/PAUSE to start PLAYER 1. PLAYER 1 is playing. Press PLAY/PAUSE to start PLAYER 2. Both CD players are playing discs. Listen to PLAYER 2 in your headphones. If the beat of channel 2 (in the headphones) is faster than channel 1, slow down the beat of channel 2 using the pitch control. If the beat of channel 2 (in the headphones) slower than the beat of channel 1, speed up the beat using the pitch control.

USING THE BPM DISPLAY FEATURE Press the BPM button to select the BPM feature on the display on the side of the CD player that you wish to set. Tap the Counter button to the beat of the music. You will see the BPM number appear in the display. The more times you tap the more accurate your number will be. When you adjust the pitch slider the display number will change by an equal percentage.
BEAT MATCHING USING PITCH BEND If you find the BPMs (Beats Per Minute or Tempos) are the same, however, the drum beats are not matched you will need to temporarily change the pitch. The illustration below shows how to match the beat of PLAYER 2 to the beat of the music being played on PLAYER 1. (This procedure can be done on either PLAYER). After matching the BPMs adjust the pitch temporarily as follows: When PLAYER 2 is ahead, rotate the jog wheel counter clockwise. When PLAYER 2 is behind, rotate the jog wheel clockwise.
The pitch changes automatically while the jog wheel is rotated. The faster you rotate the wheel the more you change. Releasing the wheel results in a return to the original pitch (so the BPMs are once again the same).
EXAMPLE OF MIXING USING BOTH PLAYERS OF YOUR CD PLAYER While playing a disc on PLAYER 1, load a disc into PLAYER 2 and select your next track, match its pitch to the track playing on PLAYER1 and when you are ready use the crossfader on your mixer to fade from PLAYER 1 to PLAYER 2.
