CONNECTIONS 1 -

CONNECTING HEADPHONES

AND SPEAKERS

Connect the DJConsole Rmx2 to your

computer using the USB cable.

Thread both the USB cable and the

power adapter cable through the hook to

prevent accidental disconnection.

Connect the power adapter.

Finally, set the On/O switch to On.

When connecting headphones, make sure that the volume level is suitable for

listening with headphones: before putting the headphones on your ears,

start playing a music track, and turn down the volume if it seems that the sound

coming from the headphones is too loud.

The Main master volume knob only controls the level of the XLR outputs.

You can connect 2 XLR to RCA cables, 0r 2 XLR to 6.35 mm jack cables, with

speakers equipped with RCA or 6.35 mm jack inputs.

LOADING YOUR MUSIC

IN DJUCED™

Use the following buttons to browse through folders and les.

3.1 Browse to the location where your music les are stored on your computer.

3.2 After highlighting a track, press Load A to load the track on deck A, or press Load B to

load the track on deck B. DJUCED™ automatically analyzes the BPM (number of beats

per minute) of the track you have loaded.

DJUCED™ lets you play the most popular audio le formats (mp3, wav, wma, aif...)

if the codec is installed on your computer. If a le format is not properly recognized

in iTunes, Windows Media Player... update your version of the software in question.

Browse through the

list of folders or

through les:

In DJUCED™: go to

the folders explorer /

PREVIEWING A TRACK

Previewing lets you prepare the next track to be played (following the track that you

are currently playing for your audience). You will use previewing to beatmatch the

next track to be played, or pause the track at a precise spot so that playback will start

from this exact position. Or you can place a Cue point, which will let you start playback

of the track from that point (please also see section 8 – PLACING A CUE POINT).

4.1 You are playing a track on deck A, and want to preview the next track on deck B.

4.2 Set the Cue to Mix knob to Cue.

4.4 Adjust the volume level on your

headphones using the Vol -/+ knob.

4.5 Start playing the track to be previewed on deck B. Prepare the track (beatmatch the

track, place a Cue point...).

4.3 Press the button on deck B (the deck on which the track that you want to preview

is loaded).

MIXING TRACKS

SCRATCHING

ON A TRACK

Mixing tracks means to link up songs,

one after another, without any gaps or

silences between them.

5.5 Before the end of the track being played,

start playing the track loaded on deck B.

6.1 P r e s s t h e button to enable Scratch

mode.

6.2 Start playing a track loaded on deck A,

for example.

example over 1 or 2 beats.

6.3 Place your hand on the jog wheel on

deck A, as shown in the illustration.

6.4 P r e s s d o w n

slightly on the jog

wheel...

5.7 To make the transition, progressively

move the crossfader toward the deck

on which the new track is being played

(here, to the right).

5.6 To ensure a transition at the same

tempo, synchronize the BPM (number

of beats per minute) of the track that

you are getting ready to play. Adjust

the BPM to match the BPM of the track

on deck A using the pitch fader (1). Or

press the button on deck B (2) to

synchronize the track’s BPM with the

BPM value of the track that is ending

(on deck A).

EFFECTS, LOOPS AND SAMPLES

An effect is a lter (or a combination of lters) which modies the sound: echo,

reverb... A loop is a part of a track whose beginning and end you dene, and which

is played repeatedly. A sample is a short sound which can be played on its own or in

conjunction with other samples, either over the music or in place of the music, and

can be played either as a loop, or just one time (this is known as a “jingle”).

7.1 Applying an eect on a track that is loaded and playing.

The order of the eects bar corresponds to the numbers of the pads.

Pad 1 = Eect 1, pad 2 = Eect 2, pad 3 = Eect 2, pad 4 = Eect 3.

7.3 Creating and playing a loop from a track

that is loaded and playing.

Press the button to light up the Eect

indicator.

Press the button to light up the Loop indicator.

When a track is playing, press pad 1 to create the start of the loop (or “loop in” point), and

then press pad 2 at the moment where you want to mark the end of the loop (or “loop

out” point).

Use the vertical lines in DJUCED™ (1 line = 1 beat), as well as the music being played,

to help you determine the best place for the end of the loop. In EZ (“easy”) mode, the

loop is created on an even (and not odd) number of beats.

DJUCED™ plays a part of the track as a loop. Press pad 2 to exit the loop and return to

normal playback.

Press pad 3 to divide the loop length in half, and pad 4 to double the length of the loop.

7.2 Playing a sample on a track that is loaded and

playing.

The pad’s number corresponds to a specic

sample.

Press the button to light up the Sample

indicator.

Press one or more pads to trigger the samples.

If the sample if played as a loop, press the pad

again to stop playback of the sample. If the

sample if not played as a loop (i.e. it is played

once, as a jingle), then the pad's backlighting

duration corresponds to the sample length:

short, for a short sound such as a drum

hit; longer, for a brief sample of music, for

example.

Press a pad to apply an eect, or multiple pads to apply

a combination of eects. The corresponding eect or

eects are displayed in DJUCED™

CREATING A PLAYLIST

A Cue point is a marker that you can place in a music track. It lets you start playback

of the track from that point.

You can place up to 4 markers, known as

Hot Cue points.

8.2 Press the button to light

up the Cue indicator.

8.3 Press pad 1 to place Hot Cue 1, pad 2 to place Hot Cue 2, etc. Once this is done, when

you are in Hot Cue mode simply press one of pads 1 to 4 to access the corresponding

marker in the track.
