BASIC OPERATIONS Open/Close: Press to load or eject the disc. The drawer will automatically close to protect the tray from accidental damage while open. NOTE: Tray will not open if the disc is in play. In order to program the automatic close time press and hold “PROG”...
Page 17
Time: switches the time modes on the display between elapsed playing time, remaining time on the track and remaining time on the entire CD. This setting will be remembered at power down. Single: toggles the unit to play back just one track at a time (single) or play continuously through all tracks and then start over repeating the CD infinitely (continuous).
SETTING CUE POINTS PLAY and CUE Pressing the “PLAY” 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” button and the “CUE” button, the disc may be returned and played from the cue point any number of times.
CUE/LOOP POINT STORAGE AND RECALL To SAVE Cue and Loop points on the current CD: CD should still be in the drawer with cue and loop points set. Press “PROG” + Cue points are stored and LCD shows "CUE STORE" for 1 second. If MIDI OUT is connected to the MIDI in of another CD player’s MIDI IN, the cue point is stored on the other CD player.
THE BEATKEEPER™ III The AXIS 9 includes the latest Numark patented Beatkeeper™ technology. The Beatkeeper™ automatically tracks beats based upon a combination of frequencies and rhythm patterns in the music. It shows BPM in the display and outputs 4-count (a.k.a. measure) information about the music in a marching bar graph.
ADJUSTING PITCH/ALIGNING BEATS Pitch Button: Activates the pitch slider and adjusts the amount of control the pitch slider has on the overall speed of music. Pressing “PITCH” will toggle the slider on and off. Range adjustments of 6, 12, 25, and 100% can be achieved by holding down “PITCH”...
LOOPING OPERATIONS A loop is any area of a CD that you choose to repeat seamlessly. On the AXIS 8/9 two seamless loops are possible. LOOP IN: is the point where you wish for the loop to start. The initial “CUE”...
Page 23
Note: The “LOOP OUT” point will be erased if “LOOP IN” is pressed or a new “CUE” point is set after the “LOOP OUT” point. This is important because without this point, “RELOOP” will not be possible. MOVING LOOP POINTS The “LOOP IN”...
RELOOP/STUTTER: 2 functions depending on loop setting. “RELOOP” is only possible if “LOOP” points have been previously set. The “RELOOP” function automatically returns the music to the “LOOP IN” point and will play the loop until it is released with the “LOOP OUT” button.
KEY LOCK / KEY CHANGE The AXIS 9 uses Numark exclusive technology to lock the key of the music in place at the current pitch position or change it from the current position. This is different than “master tempo” often found on many modern units because the key lock to the current pitch position and not automatically set to the “0”...
EFFECT PARAMETER PRESET: Press on the desired effect and rotate the wheel (AXIS 8) or inner touch wheel (AXIS 9) without releasing the button. When the desired parameter is reached in the display, release the button. If an effect is already playing, the new parameter will be heard upon button release.
Page 27
EFFECTS: SCRATCH – This effect makes it possible for the wheel to scratch the music while it is playing. If you move the wheel back and forth the music will stop and play slowly as the wheel is moved similar to scratching a record. There are several modes of operation for this effect.
Page 28
ECHO – this effect adds echo to the music also based upon the Beatkeeper™. The start parameter is no echo “0”. If you move the wheel to the right the numbers will go 1-64, 1-32, 1-16, 1-8, 1-4, 1-2, and 1-1 indicating the amount of echo added to the unit.
Page 29
Isolate - This isolation filter lets you play only a specific frequency of the music. Rotation of the wheel moves the frequency played through the audio spectrum. If you turn off the effect then on again it remembers the last set parameter.
PROGRAM FUNCTIONS PLEASE READ!!!! This button provides several programmable functions depending upon the combination of buttons used. Track Sequence Programming - Depress “PROG” while the unit is stopped and “ ” will light. Select each track to be programmed then press “PROG” between selections. Press “PLAY/STUTTER”...
Relay time – this gives options for the amount of time used for relaying between tracks on two connected units. Options will appear to relay immediately after the track (0), with time added of 1, 2, or 3 seconds (1,2,3), or a reduction of 1,2, or 3 seconds (- 1,-2,-3).
FADER START Fader Start is achievable by attaching your CD player to a similarly equipped DJ mixer and setting the rear panel selection switch to “mixer” mode. Connect cables between the CD player and your DJ mixer. Press the button or switch on your mixer into fader start mode to activate the fader start capability.
MIDI IN-OUT MIDI – stands for musical instrument digital interface. Basically this means you can hook up 2 MIDI compatible devices and they will talk to each other. In this case you might connect 2 AXIS 8/9s and have them synchronize beats, add a MIDI keyboard and have it control the CD players or hook up a drum machine and play a rhythm pattern in time with the music.
Page 34
INCREASE/DECREASE: When the slave becomes the master or is released from interlock and still playing, the pitch playing will often be different than the original position of the pitch slider. The pitch slider will not function until it is brought to the new position. Move the pitch slider in the direction shown in the display.
