FADER “Q” START CONTROL: This feature is used in conjunction with American Audio
®
mixers that feature “Fader
Q-Start” control. Connect your SDJ2 as described in the set-up section of this manual. After set up is completed load
SDs into both players. By moving the mixer’s crossfader from left to right you can start and pause the SDJ2™ play-
back functions. For Example, if the mixer’s crossfader is all the way to the left (player one is playing and player two is
in cue or pause mode), and you move the fader at least 20% to the right, player two (2) will begin to play and player
one (1) will return to cue mode. When the crossfader is to the right, and you move it 20% to the left, player one (1)
will begin to play and player two (2) will return to its’ cue point. You can create great effects similar to scratching with
this feature. After storing cue points on each side of the SD player, different songs or loops may quickly be recalled
by moving the mixer crossfader back and forth. New cue points can be easily selected on the SDJ2™ player (see
setting cue points page 18). “Q” Start control is easy to use and mastering this feature will help you create amazing
effects with your music.
