Relay play using two players

When the accessory control cord is used to connect the CONTROL jacks
of this player and another Pioneer CDJ series CD player, the two players
can be made to perform automatic relay play ( P. 9).
¶ Set the two players' auto cue function to ON (the [A.CUE] indicator
lights in the display).
¶ Set your audio mixer's fader control to its center position.
1. Begin playback on the first player.
2. When the currently playing track finishes, the second
player automatically begins playback.
3. The first player then pauses at the beginning of the its
next track in the CUE standby mode.
¶ This process is repeated automatically, alternating playback on both
players.
¶ By exchanging the disc on the waiting player and cueing it to a
desired track, you can play a continuing series of desired tracks
from different discs.
¶ By setting a cue point on the waiting player, it is possible to start
from playback from a specifically desired point on a track P. 15
"Cue point settings".
Note:
¶ Relay play may not occur properly if both players' audio out-
put connectors are not connected to the same audio mixer.
¶ If the power is disconnected to the currently operating player,
the waiting player may start playback in some cases.
¶ Since the control cords require different connections, it is not
possible to combine fader start and relay play simultaneously.

Cue point / loop point memory

This component is equipped with an internal memory allowing cue or loop
points to be recorded for each disc.
The internal memory allows ten cue or loop points to be recorded per disk,
up to a total of 800 discs. If data is input for more than 800 discs, earlier
disc data will be erased, beginning from the least frequently used disc
data.
¶ A single loop is composed of two points (IN/OUT).

eration mode.

data has not been copied properly. Turn the power to both players
OFF and then ON again, and repeat the copying procedure from
step 1.
* Data on the receiving player is overwritten by the data from the
sending player; this means that any previously existing data on
the receiving player will be completely lost.
