determine the number of Auto Beats Loop. After selecting the

ready to make playing the Auto Loop. Press IN and Auto Loop we
have determined its duration will begin to play.
Auto Loop length can be selected from a range of 1 / 32 to 32 / 1.
PARTITION/FOLDER/TRACK
When your storage device exceeds more than 500 MB or even 500
GB. You will make many partitions like C, D, E... and so on in your
PC. You may put many music at different folder and put many
folders at different partitions. We have supported this partition
design.
If on pause mode pressing three seconds, it will appear the total
partition. Selecting the partition first so that you can choose the
folder music and track you would like to play.
When plugging in your USB device, if it only got a single partition,
it will not appear the command to let you select the partition.
Because it's already go to the first partition. But if many
partitions, the condition just like my description above.
With a normal pressing (not for 3 seconds), it switch the total
folders and the total tracks.
EDITING AND CALLING "LISTS"
If you have a 500GB USB storage device and you want to play the
second track when it's already playing the first track. Maybe you
will not exactly know at which folders and partition you put the
song you would like to play .
Some DJs will make Playlist on computer first. For example, you
wanna play 50 songs as a party. But it's impossible to search the
song when you are Djing because maybe your storage data are
not classified at the same folder. So editing the Playlist by your
computer and store the list in your USB device. ACU-4 can call the
list out.
EDIT A LIST
First of all, you must hook up your USB device to your PC. Place
the music you wanna use to your USB device. Then open your
MP3 media player like I Tune, Winamp and Windows Media
Player. Select to make a list through the software but must select
from your USB device.
Now you can add the songs to make the lists. In the end when
completing the list,
save in the list in the root of your USB
can add the songs crossing many folders in your USB device.
