| The TASCAM CD-302 dual deck DJ-CD system, goes head to head with the very best analogue decks in providing a full - and authentic sounding - capability to scratch and brake... digitally! |
| The beautifully laid out dual-controller provides a very physical degree of control over playback and mixing of the independent CD drives, housed in a 2U 19-inch rackmount enclosure. Two large rubberised rocker controls and full throw 100 mm pitch sliders are the most immediate features of the controller, while colour coded illuminated buttons and a quick glance LCD readout and separate BPM counter, make for a highly intelligible and intuitive control. The controller is housed in a horizontally configured 5U rack, for integration within console assemblies; the individual controllers can be separated. | | As well as the unique scratch mixing and braking features (and sounds), other exclusive CD-302 features include +32% pitch control, automatic Tempo sync and Beat sync. Tempo can be altered independently of any change in pitch, or together with pitch - as on analogue turntables. Likewise, the pitch of a track can be altered without any change in the tempo. Pitch can also be altered in semitone increments. There is also a BPM Tap function and a Tempo Bend function for aligning beats when mixing. | | A 10 second sample function on each deck can be spun into the mix, even when the sampled CD is removed, and there's a seamless 'loop' capability and a 10 second shock and knock proof memory to prevent 'jumping'. The instant start function allows the frame accurate cuing-up of tracks from the jog wheel controls. A 1000 track memory, enables the recall of cue points, loop points, sampling points, BPM, pitch, etc). | | Other features Program Play of up to 30 tracks, Auto Cue and Auto Ready functions, End of Message function, Timer play and Relay play, Event Start and fader Start functions, a Sleep function that stops the transport motor automatically if left idle for more than 30 minutes and a transport auto-close function that automatically closes the CD tray after 30 seconds. And not forgetting sound quality - the CD-302's high quality analogue convertors put out a stunning 98 dB dynamic range. | | Features: | Advanced beat matching control with large, automatic BPM meter | True instant start | ±100% tempo adjustment without changing pitch | ±100% pitch adjustment without changing tempo | On-board 10 second sampling on each unit | Turntable emulation with brake function and scratch play | 10 second shock RAM buffer | Seamless loop function | Incremental play function | Fader start function | Detachable remote control for each player | Separate RCA unbalanced outputs for each player |
