You may have to connect a USB cable and a USB auxiliary power cable depending on the specifications of your PC.

An input level that is set too high may cause sound distortion. Lower the input level.

MP3 directly imported from a CD-R or CD-RW disc cannot be used by DJS unless the disc is inserted in the optical drive on your computer. Also, DJS cannot play back imported files that have been moved to a different folder or have been renamed.

The CD information may not display correctly if the CD database service has been terminated or discontinued. Should this happen, select an available CD database and check operation. The steps for changing CD database are listed below.
1) Click [File; Preferences] in the menu at the top of DJS.
2) Click [Ripping] and then [About music CD].
3) Enter the CD database URL in the [URL for CD information].
4) Click [OK].
Under DJS specifications, the CD database is provided by external services. It may therefore be difficult for us to identify the real cause of the connection problem.
For details, please check the announcements from your CD database service.
If you are unable to find the necessary information, it may be that the CD database you are using contains no CD information on the CD concerned. Try ripping another CD and see if it works. Or try a different CD database and see if it works.

Certain combinations of sampling rates and bit rates may not enable ripping. For example, a 16 kHz sampling rate allows ripping only in VBR while a 22/24 kHz sampling rate allows ripping at 80 kbps and in VBR. In Preferences, be sure to select a setting in "About line input recording/music CD" that permits ripping.

The software license agreement states that one license allows the user to install the software on only one computer. DJS cannot be installed on multiple computers.

Please contact DJS inquiries (or use our inquiry form). You will need your installation key, name and other registration details to do this. We will provide the required information only to users who can effectively prove that they are the registered user of the software. We cannot respond to inquiries by persons who are not registered users.

Yes, it does.

DJS supports line ripping at 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz, 24 kHz, 22.05 kHz and 16 kHz sampling rates. You can select a sampling rate in "About line input recording/music CD" in Preferences. Note that ripping of CD-DA discs is locked at 44.1 kHz.

Select "DJS only" in the "DJS Delete" window when uninstalling to retain preference settings and MP3 files, so that you can utilize them after having reinstalled DJS. (MP3 files need not be imported.)

If you are using a laptop, the power saving function may be set to reduce performance. Connect an AC adapter instead of using the battery and deselect all energy saving functions. If it still skips, increase the buffer size of the audio device. Skipping may also be caused by other applications (resident software) that are used simultaneously.

The actual message displayed depends on whether you are using Windows Vista, Windows X or Windows 2000. Check the user manual supplied with your operating system.

DJS will not run when the trial period has expired. [Reference] DJS runs in trial mode after installation. Trial mode means that the registration ID has not been entered in DJS and that it is running in trial mode. DJS can be run in trial mode for up to 60 days. When the trial period elapses, you will not be able to use DJS any further. To exit trial mode you will have to register the product and enter the registration ID issued. --> For details, see Chapter 11 on page 131.

① Use an ASIO device driver.
② In DIRECT X, turn all program event sound settings off in the control panel

Songs are analyzed during ripping, which takes time.

The DJS specifications for scratch mode operation during loop playback differ from those for the MEP-7000.

The specifications for jog operation when super fast search stops on the DJS and MEP-7000 differ.

The variable range for the DJS pitch bend button is ±40% and differs from the MEP-7000 function.

*To connect a Pioneer CDJ-400 (Compact Disc Player) to your computer and use it in combination with DJS, you will need a USB port (USB 1.1 or later). For details, check the users manual of the product.

No, it does not.

DJS is not compatible with Macintosh computers (including Intel CPU Macintosh computers).

No, it isn't, so separate recorder or recording software is required.

The maximum number of songs that can be recorded depends on hard disk capacity and other hardware factors.
Although depending on computer specifications, a track list containing 10,000 to 20,000 songs or more and a play list of a hundred to several hundred songs may slow down scrolling, searches and have other effects. (This is also the case in music management mode.)

No, it isn't. Selecting external mixer directly outputs PL-A and PL-B so a separate mixer is required for mixing.

DJS does not support sleep mode and standby mode. Restart DJS after sleep mode or standby mode

This symptom is caused by incorrect detection by the antivirus software. The file is not infected by a virus. Change the settings of your antivirus software.

This is a specification problem. DJS may change background color to improve response. Exiting DJS will automatically return Windows Aero (Windows Vista basic) to Vista.

A key symbol to the left of a song name indicates a read-only file. Change this attribute.

Yes, it is compatible.

These are indicating the different model numbers of DJS; prior versions are indicated by SVJ-DL01, while those compatible with the MEP-7000 are indicated by SVJ-DS01.

Put the path name (file and/or folder name(s)) in your language or in English.

Put the path name (file and/or folder name(s)) in English or in the language of the version of Windows being used.

Since DJS's audio output sampling rate is 48 kHz, sound cards or devices not supporting 48 kHz will not be displayed on the spaces for sound card 1-2, and therefore cannot be used. Be sure to use sound cards and devices that support 48 kHz.

You may have to connect a USB cable and a USB auxiliary power cable depending on the specifications of your PC.

It is possible, but when the DJS is set to internal mixer mode, MEP-7000 cannot be selected as the destination of audio output.
To use the MEP-7000 in normal style for audio output, set DJS to external mixer mode.

In internal mixer mode, the DJS cannot select MEP-7000 as a sound card. Use the external mixer mode to do this.
