F EAT U RES  
Dual Top loading CD player. For quick loading of Auto Smoothing. Between each track on any CD is  
CDs top loading systems offer unparalleled ease.  
Further, the opaque plastic cover allows you to  
usually a few seconds of no signal. The CDX-16  
incorporates technology that eliminates this

front-loading players. from the previous track to the current track playing.  
Inbuilt mixer. The CDX-16's inbuilt mixer allows Anti Skip & Anti Jump. The buffer memory on the  
you to mix CD, phono, and line sources without the  
connection of an external mixing console. To choose  
the input source or CD which will be mixed, simply  
switch to the desired input using the input assign  
switch.  
CDX-16 is sufficient to eliminate any skipping from  
vibrations or pressure. The suspension system also  
prevents low frequency sounds from causing similar  
skips or jumps whilst the CD is playing.  
Cue Point. This function allows you to set a cue  
point on a given CD and to access this point quickly  
and easily.  
Pitch Control. The playing pitch of either CD can be  
adjusted with the use of the pitch control fader or the  
pitch may be bent with the pitch bend joystick. The  
pitch range can be set to two levels, +/-8 or +/-16.  
Pitch range is most useful when attempting to best  
match the playing pitch of one track with another for  
smooth beat mixing.  
Standby Mode. If the CD is left unattended or on  
pause mode for an extended period (approximately  
10 minutes) the unit will go into sleep/auto standby  
mode. This feature has been included to promote the  
life of each mechanism as constant playing will wear  
down the quality of the laser and reduce the amount  
of enjoyment that you may have with the CDX-16.  
Joystick. The two (2) joysticks on the CDX-16  
allow users to quick scan the CD, search easily for a  
known track and to pitch bend the track playing.  
Pitch bend allows you to adjust to pitch momentarily  
in order to fine tune your mix.

BEFORE USE  
Using CDs.  
A conventional CD consists of two (2) sides. Typically one side bears a label stating the name of the CD and artist  
whilst the front side, rainbow like in its color, contains the information that makes this technology work. There are  
approximately six (6) million data items stored on any one given CD front surface. Please make sure to load the  
CD into the playing mechanism correctly, so that the front side (rainbow) is unable to be seen once the lid is  
closed.  
Unlike conventional analog turntables, CD technology uses a fine laser beam instead of a stylus to read the  
contents of the disc. As a result of there being little physical contact, a CD will take infinitely longer to degrade.  
Repeated use of a CD, even playing over the same track again and again will likely have very little effect on the  
audible quality of the discs data.  
However, the front surface of a CD is brittle and may be scratched or damaged if you are careless in its handling.  
Thus, please take care to load you CDs correctly and ensure that you store them in a safe place. Furthermore,  
avoid leaving CDs in direct sunlight or in close proximity to a heating device or hot object, in the rain or in water,  
or on surfaces that have excessive moisture or surface dirt/grime. Also take care when cleaning any CD by using a  
recommended or special purpose cleaning cloth, cleaning spray or product and always wipe in the direction  
illustrated below.  
Wipe from the inside out.  
Do not wipe in a circular fashion.  
Never use record cleaner designed for conventional analog disks, this will degrade the CD disc surface.  
Always store disc properly in the case.  
Warning  
Please do not inhibit access to this unit's main switch by operating it in a confined area.  
Do not expose to water, moist environments or operate this device in an area likely to be effected by liquid  
spillage or dripping.

C D SEC TIO N  
PITCH CONTROL FADER  
Used to adjust the playing pitch (speed) by up to +/- 8%, +/-  
16%. As this fader is 100mm in length you are able to make  
both major and subtle adjustments in the playing pitch of any  
given CD sound source. Typically, this fader is used to make  
subtle adjustments that allow for beat matching/mixing that  
results in you ultimately being able to move from one track to  
another without an audible difference.  
PITCH LOCK INDICATOR  
When the light is on Pitch Lock is active. When the light is  
off Pitch Lock is inactive.  
PITCH LOCK ON/OFF SWITCH  
When selected, and the light is on, the pitch of the CD playing  
will be set to a pitch neutral position regardless of the pre-set  
pitch level or how the pitch control fader is adjusted. When  
Pitch Lock is set to off, the pitch control fader is active.  
STICK CONTROLLER  
[1] Pitch Bend  
By pressing the stick towards the rear panel (up) of the console you are able to make a momentary negative  
(-) adjustment in the pitch. The opposite movement (down) will result in a positive (+) adjustment in the  
pitch. The joystick will automatically spring back to a neutral position and any pitch adjustments will hence  
stop. You can use this feature to give the track a little push or a little pull or you can use it to create some  
interesting effects.

[2] Scan Function  
Whilst the CD is in play mode pressing the joystick to the left will scan the CD in reverse whilst pressing the  
joystick to the right will scan forward. This speed setting is dependent on the angle of the joystick. The flatter  
the angle the faster the scan speed and vice versa. The scan function is easily used to find an approximate

Scans forward.  
The information (data) on a CD is written at approximately 75 frames per second.  
PREVIOUS BUTTON  
Used for skipping backwards to the starting point of the current track (when pressed once). If pressed twice, the  
return point is the starting point of the previous track. The number of times this button is pressed (after the first  
time) corresponds to the number of tracks back the starting point returns to.  
NEXT BUTTON  
Used for skipping forward to the starting point of the next track. The number of times pressed determines the  
number of tracks skipped ahead.  
PLAY/PAUSE BUTTON  
Press this button to play a given track on the CD or to pause at any point on any track. Whilst in pause mode,  
the CD will continue to spin but the point at which you pressed pause will be the starting point for when you  
choose to push play.  
PLAY/PAUSE INDICATOR  
This light indicates whether or not the unit is in play or in pause mode. When the light is on, the CD is in play  
mode. If the indicator light is flashing then the CD is in pause mode.  
CUE BUTTON  
The last pause point is always memorized and can be cued up by pressing the cue button. This function is  
useful for instant cueing as the same position (pause point) can be recalled and played back with one easy  
action.  
A Cue Point will be lost when,  
The unit is turned off.  
The CD is played or the pause point is shifted. The new cue point will always be the point at which pause  
was last set.  
The stop button is pressed.  
The applicable CD is ejected.  
(A) Using the Cue function.  
To set a cue point is simple and easy. Once you have found the section or point, which you want to cue  
press the pause button. To check if your cue point is OK, hold down the cue button and the track will play  
past this point. Release the cue button and the initial point from which you just played will be recalled.  
When it comes time to play from the cue point first press the cue button to make sure that the point is  
recalled and set and then press the play/pause button. Please note that unless you press pause again, the cue  
point will remain at the first point set.

Used to select the input source (Phono, Line, CD) sent to the  
designated PGM (A,B).  
MONITOR SELECT SWITCH  
Used to select the signal for monitoring (headphone). Selection is  
made irrespective of the position of the crossfader and can be set to  
either PGM A, B or to Mix. The selected PGM monitor signal can  
be heard through the left (side) headphone whilst the main output  
signal is heard in the right headphone. When set to MIX the master  
signal can be monitored through both headphones in stereo.  
INPUT LEVEL METER  
This LED indicates the current level of each input signal for both  
PGM A and PGM B.  
PGM EQ VOLUME

PGM.  
21  
PGM VOLUME LEVEL  
Used to control and adjust the input level of each PGM.  
22  
CROSS FADER  
With the cross fader to the left, the output signal is PGM A.  
Therefore, when the cross fader is to the right the output signal is  
PGM B. As the cross fader is moved from one side to the other  
there is a blend of the respective signals. This is such that when the  
fader is in the neutral (center) position both signals can be heard.  
The cross fader on the CDX-16 is user replaceable. When the cross  
fader is worn out the fader may be easily removed and subsequently  
replaced with the optional replacement fader CF-R3 Likewise,  
preventative maintenance & cleaning of the fader may be  
accomplished through such easy removal.  
To replace the crossfader please follow the below instructions carefully.  
(i) Carefully remove the four (4) screws that fix the crossfader to the faceplate.  
(ii) Gently remove the crossfader, making sure to disconnect all cables carefully.

GETTING THE MOST OUT OF THE CDX-16  
1.Switch your CDX-16 on, you'll find the on/off switch on the left side of the  
rear panel.  
2.Open the CD tray(s) and put in your CD. Make sure that the CD has been  
placed flat and in the tray with the front side facing the mechanism (so that  
you can see the label side through the tray's window. Close the tray  
3.Press the PLAY button.  
4.The CD will now be playing and you will be able to fully control the CDís  
status through all the various controls. For example if you want to skip  
ahead to track number 5 and to cue up to start at 01.30.00, use the NEXT  
button to first get you to track number 5. Set the CD to PAUSE and then use  
the joystick controller to search ahead to the 01.30.00 mark. Press the PLAY  
button to start playing from that point. Alternatively, once you have gotten to  
track number 5 simply use the joystick to scan through to approximately  
01.25.00 and then release the joystick. If you press the PAUSE button at  
precisely 01.30.00 you will have set yourself a CUE point that you can recall  
at anytime, regardless of the tracks playing status. From this CUE point  
simply press the PLAY button to continue.  
5.Now that you have mastered the playing functions you may wish to turn your  
attention to improving your DJ mixing skills. With both CD units active you  
can easily mix between either CD 1 or CD 2. Depending on your monitoring  
setting is what you will hear. Please play around with this feature until you  
have confidently become accustomed to cuing you tracks up with another  
playing. To mix between the CDs playing is simple with the crossfader. Of  
course, with great input options you can also cue up an external source.  
6.When you have finished your session be sure to turn your CDX-16 off in  
order to prevent unnecessary degradation to your CD mechanisms. To do this  
just hold down the STOP button for longer than three seconds. Please check  
that you have stopped both CD1 and CD2 before turning your CDX-16 off at  
the power switch.
