Numark DDS80 Manual De Inicio Rápido página 3

INTRODUCTION
DDS80 is a revolutionary DJ system, featuring a 3U rack-mountable dual-deck console and a 2U rack-
mountable USB2.0 hard drive companion with CD/DVD support. With a ground-breaking and easily
accessible user interface, the plug and play design empowers the DJ to quickly find, organize and
perform tracks from connected USB storage devices. Songs can be directed manually to decks or
automatically played, jukebox-style.
Powerful tools such as the Crate and Profile View offer a digital slant on traditional DJ methods. The
Crate can be used to prepare and arrange your set in advance, during your performance or a mixture of
both. The Profile View offers a fast visual cueing aid, much like looking at the grooves on a record, but
better!
In addition to rock-solid connectivity with the companion DDS Drive, the DDS Console boasts three
additional USB connections for a wide variety of storage options. These include the Apple iPod®, thumb
drives and external hard drives. Searching for artists, albums or tracks is made super fast with the
supplied USB keyboard.
The DDS Console can play MP3, WAV and AAC* music formats stored on FAT16, FAT32, NTFS and HFS+
file systems.
We have provided this Quickstart Guide as a starting point for your explorations. If you just can't wait to
begin using the unit, please take a few moments to go through this guide to quickly learn about basic
operation. However, we highly recommend reading the Reference Manual included on the DDS Drive to
get the most out of your DDS80.

IMPORTANT MESSAGES
DDS works best with the latest software installed. We strongly recommend that you check for software updates
right away, and continue to check regularly so you don't miss out on any of the good stuff! See "DDS Software
Upgrades" section of Reference Manual for details and visit
Don't Force It
USB devices fit into the USB socket one way around only. If the device does not push in easily, don't
force it – check that you have it the right way around!
Eject Before Pulling
When you're finished with a storage device, always properly eject it before unplugging, just like with
your home computer! Unplugging without ejecting can damage your data. See "Ejecting a Library"
section for details.
USB Gizmos
Mice, trackpads and other input devices will do nothing for your DDS. Most USB keyboards are
supported but we recommend you use the cool Numark keyboard supplied.
