SET-UP PRECAUTIONS ©American Audio® - www.AmericanAudio.us - CDI-100 Mp3 Instruction Manual Page 6
(a) FADER “Q” START CONTROL: This feature is used in conjunction with most American Audio® and American DJ® audio mixers that also feature “Fader Q Start” control. For best results use this feature with two (2) CDI-100 Mp3™ players. Connect your CDI-100 Mp3’s as described in the set-up section of this manual. After set up is completed load your players. By moving the mixer’s crossfader from left to right you can start and pause your CDI- 100 Mp3 playback functions. For Example, when using two (2) CDI-100 Mp3 players and a Fader “Q” Start mixer, if your mixer’s crossfader is all the way to the left (player one is playing, player two is in cue or pause mode), and you move the fader at least 20% to the right, player two (2) will begin to play and player one (1) will return to cue mode. When the crossfader is to the right, and you move it 20% to the left, player one (1) will begin to play and player two (2) will return to its’ cue point. You can create great effects similar to scratching with this feature. After stor ing cue points on each side of the CD player, different songs or samples may quickly be recalled by moving the mixer crossfader back and forth. New cue points can be easily selected on the CDI-100 Mp3 player (see setting cue points page 16). “Q” Start control is easy to use and mastering this feature will help you create amazing effects with your music. Note: For proper “Q” Start operation be sure your mixers “Hamster” setting are set to 1/2 (Normal Setting). (b) FLIP-FLOP: This feature is used in conjunction with American Audio® mixers that also feature Fader “Q” Start. For FLIP-FLOP results you must use two (2) CDI-100 Mp3 players. Connect your CDI-100 Mp3’s as described in the set-up section of this manual. This feature will start the next player once one (1) player has ended. For example, if player one (1) is playing a disc and it ends, player two (2) will instantly begin to play. You may set FLIP-FLOP to play track to track or disc to disc. For more information on this feature, see FLIP-FLOP™ on page 22. (c) SLEEP MODE: The CDI-100 Mp3's laser and pick-up assembly will power down after 15 minutes of inactivity (when in pause or cue mode). This will lengthen the life of your motor drive and laser. To initialize the player, just press the cue or play buttons. • Plays Mp3, CD, and CD-R Discs • Selectable Voltage • Selectable elapsed, remain, & total remain time display • Auto cue • Digital Anti-Shock • Selectable Single or Continuous Play • Real time cue (“Cue on the Fly”) • Fader “Q” Start Control (a) • Sleep Mode (c) • Digital RCA coaxial output • Large bright Digital Screen can be viewed from wide angles. • Flip-Flop (Relay Playback) (b) • Pitch display • Loop IN/OUT function • Adjustable Pitch Percentages: +/-4%, +/-8%, or +/-16% • Instant Start within 10 ms (sound is produced immediately when the PLAY button is pressed) MAIN FEATURES ©American Audio® - www.AmericanAudio.us - CDI-100 Mp3 Instruction Manual Page 7

GENERAL FUNCTIONS AND CONTROLS A. TOP UNIT CONTROLS (FIGURE 3) 1. LCD DISPLAY - This high quality LCD display indicates all the functions, as they are occurring. This display is viewable at several comfortable angles (see page 8). The display ICONS will be explained on page 13. 2. TIME MODE - The TIME button will switch the time value described in the TIME METER between ELAPSED PLAYING TIME, and TRACK REMAINING TIME . 3. SGL/CTN - This function allows you to choose between single track play or continuous track play (all tracks in order). This function also oper - ates in RELAY ( FLIP-FLOP) mode. 4. PITCH SLIDER - This slider is used to adjust the playback pitch percentage. The slider is a set adjustment and will remain set until the pitch slider is moved or the pitch function has been turned off. This adjustment can be made with or without a disc in the drive. The pitch adjust - ment will remain even if a disc has been removed and will reflect on any other disc loaded into the player. That is to say, if you set a +2% pitch on one disc, remove that disc and insert another, that disc too will have a +2% pitch. The amount of pitch being applied will be displayed in the LCD (1). 5. PITCH ON/OFF BUTTON - This button is used to switch the pitch function on and off. When the button LED is lit the PITCH SLIDER ( 4) is active. When the button LED is not lit, the PITCH SLIDER (4) is not active. The pitch percentage can be changed between 4%, 8%, and 16%. 4% ©American Audio® - www.AmericanAudio.us - CDI-100 Mp3 Instruction Manual Page 9 1 2 11 3 9 8 7 6 5 4 10 16 15 14 13 12 Figure 3
will allow the least amount of pitch manipulation and 16% will allow the most amount of pitch manipulation. 6. PITCH PERCENTAGE SELECTOR - Press this button to select pitch range percentages of 4%, 8%, and 16%. See adjusting the PITCH SLIDER'S RANGE on page 20. 7. RELOOP BUTTON - If a LOOP has been made (see setting a LOOP on page 17), but the CD Player is not actively in LOOP mode (a loop is not playing), pressing the RELOOP BUTTON will instantly reactivate the LOOP mode. To exit the loop, press the OUT BUTTON (10) . LOOP and RELOOP will appear in the LCD DISPLAY (1) when the RELOOP function is available. 8. (+) PITCH BEND BUTTON - The (+) pitch bend function creates a momentary “BUMP” in the CD’s BPM’s (Beats per minute) while it is playing. This will allow you to match the beats between two playing CD’s or any other music source. Remember, this is a momentary function. When you remove your finger from this button, the BPM’s will automatically return to PITCH SLIDERS (4) selected pitch. Holding down this button will give a maximum of +16% pitch. (-) PITCH BEND BUTTON - The (-) pitch bend function creates a momentary “Slow Down” in the CD’s BPM’s (Beats per minute) while it is playing. This will allow you to match the beats between two playing CD’s or other playing music source. Remember, this is a momentary function. When you remove your finger from the pitch button, the BPM’s will automatically return to PITCH SLID- ERS (4) pitch value. Holding down this button will give a maximum of -16% pitch. Use this function to slow to another playing music source. Be sure to notice that this function is a momentary pitch adjustment, for a more precise adjustment use the PITCH SLIDER (4) to match the BPM’s with another playing music source. 9 . JOG WHEEL/EFFECTS PLATTER - This wheel has two functions; A. The jog wheel will act as a frame search con- trol when the CD is in pause or cue mode, allowing you to set a cue point. B. The wheel also works as a pitch bend during Playback. Turning the wheel clockwise will increase the pitch percentage up to 100%, and turning the wheel in the counter-clock- wise direction will decrease the pitch per- centage down to -100%. The pitch bend will be determined on how long you turn the jog wheel continuously. 10. OUT BUTTON - This button is used to set the ending point of a loop. A loop is started by pressing the IN BUTTON, and pressing the OUT BUTTON to set the loop ending point. The loop will continue to play until the OUT BUTTON is pressed once again. IN BUTTON - “CUE ON THE FLY” - This function allows you to set a CUE POINT (see CUE POINT page 16) without music interruption (“on the fly”). This button also sets the starting point of a loop (see LOOP). 11. PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON - Each press of the PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON causes the operation to change from play to pause or from pause to play. While in play mode the green play LED will glow, and while in pause mode the green play LED will flash. 12. CUE - Pressing the CUE button during play- back immediately pauses playback and returns the track to the last set cue point (see setting a CUE POINT, page 16). The red CUE LED will glow when the unit is in cue mode The LED will also flash every time a new CUE POINT is set. The CUE button can be held down to momentarily play the CD. When you release the CUE button it instantly returns to the CUE POINT. 13. +10 TRACK SKIP - This button allows you to skip ahead by 10 tracks. Example: if you are at Track #1, pressing this button will skip you to Track #11, press the button again, it will skip to Track #21. If there are not that many tracks, it will go back to Track #1. 14. SEARCH BUTTONS - This search button allows you to quick - ly scan backwards through a track. This search button allows you to quick - ly scan forwards through a track. GENERAL FUNCTIONS AND CONTROLS (Cont.) ©American Audio® - www.AmericanAudio.us - CDI-100 Mp3 Instruction Manual Page 10
