SYNQ® 5/87 CDX-2

3. R.CUE/LOOP IN button: Allows you to set the cue point without stopping the

playback (CUE ON THE FLY). This button also sets the beginning of a seamless loop.

When you play one of the hot cues, the starting point is also copied to this button.

4. CUE button: Pressing the CUE button during play provides an immediate return to

the position at which play was started. Playback starts immediately from the

programmed cue point for as long as the CUE button is pressed. The CD player jumps

back to the cue point as soon as the CUE button is released. Also with the unit in

pause mode (Play/Pause LED blinks) the search and/or jog wheel is used to set a

different start point. By pressing "PLAY/PAUSE" button then "CUE", you can confirm

this new cue point. The CUE LED lights up as long as the cue button is pressed until

the CD has returned to the position where playback was started.

5. OUT/EXIT button: Used to set the endpoint when looping music. The player starts to

loop seamlessly until you press this button again to exit. When a loop is programmed

but not active you can also restart the loop. The point where you press the button will

be memorized as the new end point of the loop. In loop edit mode pressing the

OUT/EXIT button stops the loop editing and saves the new loop endpoint.

6. PLAY/PAUSE button: every time you press the PLAY/PAUSE button the CD player

changes from play to pause or from pause to play. The button blinks as long as the

player is set to pause.

7. RELOOP/STUTTER button: This button has 3 functions:

 RELOOP: When a loop was programmed and you have hit the OUT/EXIT button,

press the reloop button to enter the loop again. To exit the loop press the

OUT/EXIT button. (intro and end points of the loop are unchanged)

 STUTTER: When a loop is playing you can press this button to restart the loop at

once. You can also press this button when a track is not playing in loop. Every time

the RELOOP/STUTTER button is pressed, it will restart the music from the

preprogrammed cue point. The stutter effect adds extra creativity to your

performance.

 ENTER EDIT LOOP MODE: When a loop is programmed (LOOP IN and

OUT/EXIT buttons are on) you can enter loop edit mode by pressing the

RELOOP/STUTTER button until the display shows “Loop Edit”.

8. HOT CUE buttons: 4 programmable buttons where you can store ordinary cue points

and/or loops. When a normal cue point is stored, the corresponding button is green,

when a loop is stored the corresponding button blinks. All stored cue points and loops

can be backed up to permanent memory for future use. This feature is called “PCMS

Permanent Cue Memory System”. Check the next chapter for more information on

how to program cue points etc.

9. PITCH BEND buttons: The speed rises while the “+ button” is pressed and returns to

the original pitch when the button is released. The speed drops when the “– button” is

pressed and returns to the original pitch when the button is released. These buttons

can be used to synchronize the beats of 2 tracks. They are also used to confirm (or

not) the questions that are sometimes shown on the display.

10. SPEED slider: Press the SPEED button, so it is lit. The speed can be changed up to

+/-100% by moving the fader. The speed will not change if the SPEED button is off.

You can change the pitch range with the %-button.

11. TIME Button: The TIME button switches between elapsed playing time, remaining

time in a selection and total remaining time of the disc. (standard = remaining /track)

The “total remaining time of the disc” is not available on MP3 CDs.

12. OPEN/CLOSE Button: Press to load or eject the disc. Each press will open or close

the disc tray on the transport.

NOTE: The tray will not open when the disc is playing, first press the PLAY/PAUSE button.

13. SGL/CTN: You can choose between “single track mode” and “continuous play”.

 Continuous play: the complete CD will be played without interruption. (mostly used

in pubs)

 Single track: player stops at the end of each track and waits at the beginning of the

next track. (mostly used by deejays)

Push the SGL/CNT button for more than 1second to switch between normal and “auto

cue” mode. In “auto cue” mode the player waits at the first music note of each track.

This means that badly indexed CDs will not interfere with the instant start capabilities

of this CD player. This is a very useful feature for deejays!

14. VFD DISPLAY: Shows all important information needed during playback. Refer to the

next chapter for more information.

15. TRACK/FOLDER SELECTOR: This multifunctional rotary switch is used together with

the FOLDER button to select the desired tracks and folders:

 TRACK MODE: Switch the FOLDER button off (button not lit) to enter track mode:

even if your CD contains subfolders (directories) the CDX-2 will pretend as if these

folders don’t exist.

 Select tracks: Turn the rotary switch to select the desired tracks. Push the

rotary switch while turning to skip 10 tracks at once.

 Show information with MP3 files: If the MP3 tracks contain ID3tags, push the

rotary switch 1x to show the title name. Push the rotary switch 2x successively

to show the artist name.

 Show information with audio CDs: If the audio CD contains CD-TEXT, push

the rotary switch 1x to show the album title.

 FOLDER MODE: Switch the FOLDER button on (button is lit) to enter folder mode:

if the CD contains subfolders you will be able to select these subfolders.

 Select folders: Push the rotary switch while turning to select the desired

subfolder.

 Select tracks: Once you have selected the desired folder, just turn the rotary

switch (without pushing) to select the desired tracks. When you arrive at the end

of the selected folder, your search starts again from the first track in the selected

folder.

 Show information with MP3 files: If the MP3 tracks contain ID3tags, push the

rotary switch 1x to show the folder name. Push the rotary switch 2x successively

to show the title name. Push the rotary switch 3x successively to show the artist

name.

16. FOLDER Button: This button is used to toggle between FOLDER and TRACK mode.

17. AUTO LOOP Button: This button is used for 2 different functions:

 Loop is NOT playing: When no loop is playing you can easily create an

automatic 4-Beat loop by pressing this button. See next chapter for more

information.

 Loop is playing: When a loop is playing you can enter loop cut/extend mode by

pressing this button. See next chapter for more information.

18. TAP button: The CDX-2 has a full automatic BPM-counter. In some rare cases the

automatic beat counter doesn’t count as it should do (beats are out of the normal

range or there’s simply no beat to detect). In these cases you can help the beat

counter by manually tapping this button to the rhythm of the beat. You can switch back

to the automatic beat counter by pressing the TAP button until the “AUTOBPM” in the

right upper corner of the display turns on.
