Setting the cue point
The two modes for setting cue point are as follows.
Play mode (default setting):
The cue point is automatically set as the last playback 
start point.
Cue mode:
The cue point is set as the point where the unlit 
CUE
 
key is pressed when the CD is paused or during scrub 
playback.
Press the 
CUE
 key while holding down the 
SHIFT 
key to display the current mode (
PLAY or CUE) briefly. 
Change the mode by pressing the 
CUE
 key again 
while the mode is displayed.

The setting can also be changed by selecting 
PLAY or 
CUE in the Setup menu CUE KEY item.
NOTE
The CUE key lights when a cue point is set. When 
the mode setting is CUE, the key will flash during 
pause or scrub playback.
The cue point is canceled when the CD cover is 
opened.
5- DJ functions
Cue
A cue point can be set that allows you to pause play-
back and jump to that point by pressing the 
CUE
 key.
The unit's DJ functions include Cue, Hot Cue (Flash Start), Loop playback, Tempo control, and Pitch bend.
Using and confirming the cue point
By pressing the 
CUE
 key once, you can pause play-
back and jump to the cue point. If you press and hold 
down the 
CUE
 key again, playback continues from 
the cue point until you release the key.
When you release the 
CUE 
key, playback pauses and 
the playback position resets to the same cue point.
The cue point can be confirmed using this function.
To resume normal playback, press the 
PLAY/PAUSE
 
key during playback while holding down the 
CUE
 
key.
Hot Cue
The CD-DJ1 has two 
HOT CUE
 keys (
1
 and 
2
) that 
allow you to set independent Hot Cue points. After 
a Hot Cue point has been set, pressing its 
HOT CUE
 
key either starts or pauses playback at that point.
Use the Setup menu FLASH Start item to set whether 
HOT CUE
 keys start or pause playback (see “Flash 
Start” on page 17).
Setting Hot Cue points
Press an unlit 
HOT CUE
 key during playback, pause, 
or scrub playback. The Hot Cue point for that key 
will be set and the key will light up.
