TRACK CONTROLS
19.
STRIP SEARCH – The length of this strip represents the length of the entire track. Place your finger on a point along
this sensor to jump to that point in the track. (If you want to scroll through a track, we recommend using your computer
rather than running your finger along the strip.)
PITCH CONTROLS
20.
TAP – Tap this button at the same tempo as the track to help the software detect a more accurate BPM reading.
21.
SCRATCH OFF – Press this to disable the PLATTER's motor and bring it to a stop.
22.
MASTER TEMPO – If you have changed the pitch of the track, you can press the MASTER TEMPO button to return the
track's pitch to its original key. The track's tempo will remain at the speed designated by the PITCH FADER.
23.
PITCH RANGE – Press this to adjust the range of the PITCH FADER to ±8%, ±16%, and ±50%.
24.
PITCH FADER – Controls the track's playback speed. An LED next to the fader will light up when set at 0%.
25.
PITCH BEND ( + / – ) – Press or hold down either of these buttons to temporarily adjust the track's playback speed.
When released, the track playback will return to the speed designated by the PITCH FADER.
26.
BPM METER – This meter is an aid for matching the tempo of both decks. When the white center LED is lit, the BPMs
are matched. Otherwise, the meter will tend towards the faster deck. The further from center, the greater the difference
between the two BPMs.
The meter is also an aid while adjusting Loop In or Loop Out points. If you are making fine adjustments to your Loop In
or Loop Out points using the PLATTERS, the lit LED will "wrap around" the meter. It will rest on the white center LED
whenever the loop's length has been doubled or halved exactly.
Note: The BPM METER will aid in loop adjustments only if (1) a BPM reading has been entered for that track and (2) the
two Decks' tempos have been synchronized.
27.
TAKEOVER LEDs – When you select the other Deck with the DECK SELECT switch, the position of the V7's PITCH
FADER may not match the Pitch setting for that Deck in the software. Slowly move the PITCH FADER in the direction
indicated by the TAKEOVER LED arrow until it turns off. At this point, the PITCH FADER matches the Pitch setting in
the software and can control it again.
