BEFORE OPERATIONS

CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING

Install the player in a well-ventilated location where it will not be exposed to high temperatures or humidity.

Do not install the player in a location which is exposed to direct sunlight, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal com- ponents. Installation of the player in a damp or dusty environment may aiso result in a malfunction and can be hazardous. Avoid installation near cookers etc., where the player may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.

Installation guidelines

??Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on heat-generating sources such as amplifi- ers or near spotlights, etc. will affect product perform- ance. Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources.

??Install this compact disc player as far as possible away from tuners and TV sets. A compact disc player in- stalled in close proximity to such equipment may cause noise or degradation of the picture.

??Noise may be noticeable when an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna or turn off power to the compact disc player.

??When the unit is used in a loud-sound environment, e.g., near a speaker, sound skip may occur. Install the unit away from the speaker or reduce the listening volume.

??Place this unit on a level surface and a stable platform.

??Be sure the player, including its audio and power sup- ply cords, does not touch vibrating materials. Any cause of vibration other than the insulators may cause the disc to skip. Take special care when using the player while it is installed in a carrying case.

Do not place on or against vibrating materials!

Cleaning the player

To clean the PLAYER wipe with a polishing or a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, moisten a soft cloth with a weak solution of neutral detergent (diluted in five to six parts water), wring the cloth well, and wipe away the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which will damage to the unit.

CD lens cleaner

The player???s pickup lens should not become dirty in nor- mal use. If for some reason, the lens becomes soiled and malfunctions, contact your nearest PIONEER author- ized service center. Lens cleaners for CD players are com- mercially available, but special care should be exercised in their use as some may cause damage to the lens.

??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, humid- ity, or extremely low temperatures. Avoid leaving discs in cars; the interior of a car in direct sunlight can be- come extremely hot.

??Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on disc labels.

Condensation

When this unit is brought into a warm room from previ- ously 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 sur- face of the disc will not directly affect the recorded signals, but, depending on the degree of contamina- tion, the brightness of the light reflected from the sig- nal surfaces may be reduced causing degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs clean by wip- ing them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer edge.

??If a disc becomes very dirty, dampen a soft cloth with water, (be sure to wring it out well) and wipe the away dirt gently. Remove any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.

??Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents or damage to the disc surface may result.

?? With this player, use only those discs

which display the mark shown right ' (Optical audio digital discs).

??When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.

??Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the disc sur- face. Also, do not scratch or damage the label.

??Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do not use damaged, cracked or warped discs.

Do not play a CD with a special shape

Do not play a CD having other shape than a circular disc, such as heart shaped disc. Otherwise malfunction may occur.

BEFORE OPERATIONS

FEATURES

This component is a compact disc player designed for use by DJs, combining the functions and operations re- quired for use in disco clubs with the unique features of the CD medium.

DIGITAL JOG BREAK

Built-in Digital Jog Break for Original Sound Creation

Each of three buttons provides a different remix assist function (JET, ZIP, WAH). By selecting the desired function and controlling the jog dial to match the track selection, you can easily create new remix sounds.

JOG DIAL

The large-diameter (100 mm) jog dial allows the user to compensate music beat in the same way common to analog turntables.

Merely rotating the dial with the fingertips allows you to find the precise entry point for tracks, moving in increments of one-frame (1/75th sec- ond).

In addition, this jog dial can be used to perform???Super-Fast Search??? and

???Super-Fast Track Search,??? which operate faster than the conventional search functions.

TEMPO CONTROL

Long-stroke (100 mm) high-precision slider control al- lows exact control of track speed.

The digital display with a 0.1% unit readout provides simplified tempo control with higher accuracy (at a variable range of ??10%).

?? Two Tempo Control Ranges

The maximum adjustable range can be set using two variable ranges or

??10% (in 0.1% steps) and +10 to ???16% (0 to +10% in 0.1% steps and 0 to ??? 16% in 0.2% steps) to facilitate adjustment.

QUICK START

Pressing the button from the standby mode produces instantaneous (0.01 second or less) music start.

Normal CD players require up to 0.3 seconds from the standby mode to the production of sound. The quick start function virtually eliminates this time lag making for smoother track-to-track splices.

MASTER TEMPO

Changes music tempo without changing pitch.

With analog systems, changing track speed results in a change in pitch.

Master Tempo Control takes advantage of the unique features of digital medium enabling track speed to be changed with no deterioration of the original pitch.

PLAYING ADDRESS

Analog bar graph gives direct indication elapsed and re- maining playing time.

This bar graph provides a direct visual readout of the progress of the track playback, comparable to the moving needle position on an analog

record. The length of the bar gives the user immediate knowledge of the current location on the track, and the flashing bar display warns of the impending end of track.

SLOT IN

The new disc loading slot mechanism makes it fast and easy to play, change, and remove discs from the player.

Discs are inserted directly, without the need to open doors or trays, mak- ing operation and track selection that much faster.

CUE

Full cueing functions. ?? Back Cue Function

Pressing the CUE button after listening to sound from a cue point returns the pickup to the cue point and al- lows play to restart from there.

The back cue function allows you to return any number of times to a preselected cue point by pressing a single button.

?? Auto Cue Function

Automatic bypassing of the non-recorded part of track introductions, cueing the track to a standby point im- mediately before sound starts.

This function allows instantaneous start of playback when the PLAY but- ton is pressed.

?? Cue Point Sampler Function

Allows playing up to one minute of sound from a preselected cue point.

This function is convenient for confirming a cue point or creating a track sampler.

FADER START

Using the DJ Mixer???s CROSS FADER slider to perform quick start and back cue.

When the unit is connected to the DJ Mixer DJM-500 or DJM-300 (both sold separately), the mixer???s CROSS FADER slider can be operated to per- form quick start and back cue.

RELAY PLAY

Connecting two CDJ-100S for Automatic Relay Play

When a track ends on one player, the other player is automatically re- leased from standby mode to begin instant playback.

OIL-DAMPED SUSPENSION

Oil-damped floating suspension protects against vibra- tions and impacts.

The player has been designed with an oil-damped floating suspension to prevent sound skipping even when the unit is subjected to impacts dur- ing use or floor-transmitted vibrations.

FORCED DISC EJECTION

If the eject button does not function or the disc cannot be removed, push- ing the pin provided into the forced ejection hole on the front panel will enable the disc to be removed.

When performing forced ejection, be sure to follow the precautions below.

1Be sure to turn OFF the power of the CD player, and check that the disc has stopped rotating. It takes about 30 seconds for the disc to stop rotating after the power has been turned OFF.

If forced ejection is performed while the disc is rotating;

??As the disc will be ejected outside the CD player rotating, it may hit your finger and cause injuries.

??As the disc will be rotating with the clamp unstable, it may be scratched.

For the above reasons, never attempt to eject the disc forcibly while it is rotating.

2Always use the pin provided (Do not use other objects). The acces- sory forced eject pin can be found embedded in the bottom surface of the player.

When the provided forced eject pin is inserted fully into the forced eject hole on the front panel, the loaded disc is ejected about 5-10 mm from the load- ing slot, making it possible to remove it by hand.

7 What is JET?

JET means to change the delay time by rotating the jog dial, thus mixing a short delay with the playback sound. Conventional DJ technique has been to use 2 players, starting the same track simultaneously on both players, then introducing a slight delay on one of the players, mixing the two sounds so as to produce the effect of a "jet engine." This function allows you to produce this sound effect easily using a single player.

7 What is ZIP?

The pitch of the playback sound is changed in accord- ance with the rotation of the jog dial, allowing you to radically change the tonal pitch of the playback sound. When the dial is held rotated in the decreasing direc- tion, a sound can be created virtually indistinguishable from stopping the rotation of an analog record.

7 What is WAH?

When the jog dial is rotated, a filter changing the cutoff frequency is applied to the playback sound, in accord- ance with the amount the dial is rotated. This allows the DJ to extract and play back desired parts from the play- back sound.

Using the HOLD function

Press the HOLD button while the DIGITAL JOG BREAK function is in effect; in the display, the indicator corre- sponding to the selected effect will switch from flashing to steadily lighted, and the amount of effect currently being applied to the sound will remain steady, even if the jog dial is released.

??When the HOLD function is in effect, the time display will periodically show the HOLD indicator as noted below.

Fader Start Playback

A commercially available mini-plug cord can be used to connect this unit's CONTROL jack to one of the optional DJ mixers DJM-500 or DJM-300; when this is done, the player's CUE standby is automatically released when the DJ mixer's channel fader is raised, thus allowing instant playback start. The player???s fader start operation can also be used to produce cross-fader effects. Restoring the fader position returns the player to its cue point (back cue) automatically.

The following operations are performed on the DJ Mixer. For details regarding connections and operation, con- sult the Operating Instructions furnished with your DJ Mixer.

1 Set CROSS FADER switch to ON.

2 Set FADER START switch to ON.

3When ???A??? is in standby mode at cue point, move the CROSS FADER slider from right to left to automati-

cally start playback on ???A???.

4When ???B??? is in standby mode at cue point, move the CROSS FADER slider from left to right to automati-

cally start playback on ???B???. ( ???A??? will simultaneously be back-cued (returns to cue point)).

NOTE:

Fader start and relay play cannot be performed simulta- neously, since different control cable connections are re- quired.

Relay Play Using Two Players

Relay play can be performed by using a commercially available miniplug cord to connect the CONTROL jacks of this unit and another CDJ series CD player.

??Set both player???s auto cue function to ON (the AUTO CUE indicators will light in the displays).

??Set your audio mixer's fader control to its center po- sition.

1.Begin playback on the first player.

2.When the currently playing track ends, playback will begin automatically on the standby player.

3.The first player will enter cue standby mode at the beginning of the next track on its disc.

??By repeating this operation, the two players can be used to perform continuous relay play.

??By loading new discs on the standby player, you can construct a continuous program of whatever tracks you wish.

??By setting a cue point on the standby player, you can perform relay to any desired cue point on the selected track (see page 10: Setting a Cue Point).

NOTE:

??Relay play may not operate properly if the audio out jacks on the two players are not connected to the same audio mixer.

??If the power to one player is turned off during its play- back, the other player may begin playback.

ADVANCED OPERATIONS

MIXING DIFFERENT TRACKS

(Example: Mix track B with currently playing track A from the main speakers.)

??Connect CD-1 to the DJ mixer???s CH 1, and connect CD- 2 to CH 2.

??Raise the TRIM, CHANNEL FADER, and MASTER LEVEL settings appropriately so that sound is pro- duced from CD-1.

1.Set the DJ Mixer???s CROSS FADER slider at its left side (CH 1).

??Track A is heard from speakers.

2.Load a CD on player CD-2.

3.Press the TRACK SEARCH buttons (4, ??) on player CD-2 to find and select track B.

4.Set the Mixer???s MONITOR SELECTOR button CH 2 to ON.

5.Rotate the DJ Mixer???s MONITOR LEVEL so that track B can be heard from the headphones.

??Only track A is heard from the main speakers.

6.Set cueing for track B on the headphones.

1 With player CD-2 in the playback mode, press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6) hear the point you wish to cue.

??The player will enter the pause mode (Broken sound will be audible).

2 Rotate player CD-2???s jog dial and search for the track???s cue point (first beat).

3When you have settled on the cue point, press the CUE button on player CD-2.

??The player???s sound will be muted and cueing will be completed.

7.Simultaneously press player CD-2???s PLAY/PAUSE button (6) when track A is heard from the speak- ers.

?? Only the track A will be heard from the main speak- ers.

?? Track B will be heard from the headphones.

8.Move the TEMPO slider to match the tempo (BPM=beats per minute) of tracks A and B.

1 The DJ mixer displays the track???s BPM (in num- bers).

??For details regarding the operation of the DJ Mixer, consult the Operating Instructions accom- panying the DJ Mixer.

2Move the TEMPO slider of player CD-2 so that the BPM of track B match those of track A.

??When the two BPM rates match, the BPM syn- chronization is complete.

9.Press the CUE button on player CD-2.

?? Player CD-2 will enter standby mode at the cueing

point.

10.As soon as track A is heard from the speakers, press the PLAY/PAUSE button (6) on player CD-2.

11.While checking the sound on the headphones, gradu- ally move the DJ Mixer???s CROSS FADER slider from left to right.

??The sound of track A from the speakers will stead- ily become mixed with the sound of track B.

??When the DJ Mixer???s CROSS FADER slider has moved all the way to the right side, the sound heard from the speaker will have changed from track A to track B, and the operation is complete.

7Long Mix Play

If the BPM rates match, mixing of tracks A and B will sound good even if the CROSS FADER slider is in the middle position.

7Fader Start Play

Using the cross fader start function of the DJ Mixer DJM-500 or DJM-300, step 10 above can be elimi- nated for even simpler mixing. In addition, when the CROSS FADER slider is returned to its original posi- tion, the status returns to that in step 9 (player CD-2 at its cue point), so that you can repeat the same play as many times as you like.

ADVANCED OPERATIONS

DIGITAL MODE

This unit is designed to allow digital output when the rear panel's DIGITAL OUT switch is set to ON.

The following button functions, however, will not oper- ate in the DIGITAL OUT mode:

CUE, DIGITAL JOG BREAK (JET, ZIP, WAH, HOLD), MAS- TER TEMPO. In the event that such non-functioning keys are pressed, the display will show D-OUT ON.

Even if these functions are currently operating,they will be non-functional when the Digital Out switch is set to ON. (Cue Point memory alone will continue to be effec- tive after Digital Out is reset to OFF.) In addition, other control functions, such as relay play and fader start will also not function when Digital Out is set to ON, and Auto Cue will enter pause at the start of the playback track. Any FL frames current displayed will be erased. In nor- mal mode, when the Play/Pause button is pressed dur- ing playback, the frame's interrupted sound will be out- put, but when the same operation is attempted in the digital out mode, the frame's interrupted sound will not be output (during pause, no sound is output).

Also, after a cue point is memorized in normal mode, if the DIGITAL OUT switch is set to ON, the analog output will be somewhat delayed from the digital output.

Precautions Regarding Connections

??When connecting a cable to the DIGITAL OUT jack, be sure the power is turned off both to this unit and to the other unit (DAT, amplifier, etc.).

??Be sure that the other component's gain and vol- ume control dials are set to their lowest settings before switching this unit's DIGITAL OUT switch to ON.
