9) Activating the ‘AQ-Touch’ Scratch/Stutter functions 

 
The CD-S6 Ultima uses a revolutionary development with the ‘AQ-Touch’ jog wheel (11). When activated the jog wheel (11) 
reacts like a turntable platter, touching the wheel will stop the CD playing and moving the wheel will scratch the music in 
real-time. There are two different modes scratch mode allows you to scratch like vinyl and scratch/stutter returns the track to 
its cue point by tapping the jog wheel. To activate these two modes follow these instructions: 

1)  Scratch Mode – To activate this mode press the FX-Select button (24) so it is green, next press the scratch/skid 

button (25) this will flash green to indicate it is active. Now if you touch the jog wheel (11) the music will stop 
instantly (Parameters for this function can be changed using feature 32) any movement of the jog wheel will forward 
or reverse the track in real-time allowing you to scratch. Releasing the wheel will return the track instantly to play 
mode. 

2)  Scratch/Stutter – To activate this mode once in scratch mode press and hold the scratch/skidbutton (25) it will begin 

to flash red. This indicates you have entered the Scratch/stutter mode. Now if you touch the jog wheel (11) it will 
return instantly to the cue point which is programmed, releasing the wheel will return it to play mode from the cue 
point. Tapping the jog wheel will create a stutter effect, you can also scratch by holding the Jog Wheel once 
released it will again return to play mode form the cue point.  

 

11) Remote Start Function with the SM-FX500 

The CD-S6 Ultima has been designed to compliment the SM-FX500 Ultima mixer. Together they give a crossfader remote 
start function. To use remote start, follow these simple instructions: 

1.  Connect the 3.5mm mini jack remote leads provided with the CD-S6 from the ‘Fader start’ inputs of the SM-FX500 

to the CD-S6 remote ‘Control Start’ inputs (55). 

2.  On the SM-FX500 click the ‘Fader Start’ switches on either side of the crossfade to the ‘ON’ position, this will 

activate the remote start function. 

3.  Move the crossfade to side ‘A or B’ which ever side the remote input has been inserted, this will start the cued track 

on the CD-S6.
