18. PITCH ADJUSTMENTS:
This function will increase or decrease the tracks playback speed or "PITCH," this is not a momentary change
as in "PITCH BENDING" on page 19. The maximum pitch bend percentage allowed is +/-16%. The PITCH
SLIDER (17) is used to decrease or increase the playback pitch. If the slider is move up (towards the top of the
unit) the pitch will decrease, if the slider is moved down (towards the bottom of the unit) the pitch will increase.
The PITCH SLIDER (17) adjustment can be changed to range from +/-8%, +/-12%, or +/-16% (See changing
"PITCH SLIDER PERCENTAGE RANGE" figure 41 below). The pitch adjustments will effect playback, reverse
playback, and your loops. The pitch adjustments will not effect your samples.

Using the Pitch Slider (17): To use the pitch slider (17) slide the slider
up and down. Down will increase the pitch and up will decrease the pitch.
When the slider is in the center position, a green LED just left of the slider will
glow. When this slider is glowing there is zero pitch being applied to the track,
regardless if the pitch function is on or off.
Adjusting the Pitch Slider's Range (17): You may change the pitch slider's
(17) operating range. To change the operating range be sure the pitch function
is turned on, see figure 39. The pitch percentage can be changed between
8%, 12%, and 16%. 8% will allow the least amount of pitch manipulation
and 16% will allow the most amount of pitch manipulation. To adjust to the
different values tap the 8% 12% 16% button (23). The LED above the PITCH
PERCENTAGE BUTTON will indicate which pitch percentage mode you are
in by, glowing green for 8%, glowing orange for 12%, or glowing red for 16%.
Note, the pitch percentage must be activated to get a LED reading.
Activating the Pitch Slider (17): To activate the PITCH SLIDER (17) you
must turn on the pitch adjustment function. Press the ON/OFF BUTTON
(24) located in the pitch control section. The ON/OFF BUTTON (24) LED
will glow when the function is activated. If the pitch function is not activated
the PITCH SLIDER (17) will not function, however the pitch bend buttons
will function normally.
