Thank you for purchasing the TASCAM CD-DJ1. This  
DJ-use CD player is portable, compact and user-friendly.  
The Key Original function makes it possible to  
maintain the same pitch while changing the playback  
tempo.  
Please study this manual thoroughly before using  
the player to ensure that you understand how to use  
it properly. We hope that with this knowledge you  
will enjoy using the CD-DJ1 and all of its features for  
many years. After you have finished reading this man-  
ual, please keep it in a safe place for future reference.  
CD playback can be controlled with an analog  
turntable by attaching a TASCAM TT-M1 (sold  
separately) to the CD-DJ1.  
The 4 playback modes include all tracks, single-  
track, all track repeat and single-track repeat.  
Seamless loop playback between any two points is  
possible.  
Main Features of the CD-DJ1  
For MP3 files, either all tracks in a single folder or  
all tracks in all folders can be selected for play.  
The CD-DJ1 is compact, lightweight and highly  
portable, making it easy to set up in DJ booths and  
other tight spaces.  
The CD-DJ1 has Auto Cue and Auto Ready functions.  
The Auto Play function allows automatic playback  
after the power is turned on.  
The CD-DJ1 can play audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs  
as well as commercially available audio CDs. In  
addition, the CD-DJ1 can play MP3 files.  
The display not only shows the status of the  
CD-DJ1 and the loaded disc, but can also show  
CD text data and MP3 file titles.  
Anti-shock memory that is effective for at least 7  
seconds allows the CD-DJ1 to output sound con-  
tinuously even in clubs and other environments  
with heavy vibrations.  
The backlight brightness and display contrast can  
be adjusted.  
The CD-DJ1 has a large easy-to-push PLAY/  
PAUSE key as well as separate SEARCH and  
SKIP keys.  
The Setup menu allows a variety of functions to  
be customized.  
The Sleep function automatically stops the CD  
mechanism and turns off the backlight if the unit  
is unused for 30 minutes.  
The CD-DJ1 has multiple cueing functions,  
including 2 HOT CUE keys and a regular CUE  
key.

Please use caution when removing the main unit  
from the package to avoid damage or injury. Please  
keep the box and packaging materials for future  
transportation.  
TASCAM CD-DJ1  
 
   
1- Introduction  
Please use the CD-DJ1 only within its operating tem-  
perature range of 5°C to 35°C (41°F to 95°F). Please  
avoid use or storage in dusty or humid environments  
because these conditions can cause malfunction.  
Avoid placing this unit on top of any heat-generat-  
ing electrical device such as a power amplifier.  
Always use the supplied AC adapter (PS-PS5)  
with the standard home electrical power out-  
let. Use of other AC adapters may damage the  
CD-DJ1.  
To maintain top performance, and prolong operating  
life, observe the following notes, precautions and  
environmental conditions:  
Use the unit on a table or rack that is level and  
sturdy.  
Avoid exposing it to extremes of temperature and  
humidity and avoid mechanical shocks.  
Wipe dirt from the unit with a dry cloth. Never  
use thinner, benzene or other solvents because  
they may cause acrylic parts and coated surfaces  
to dissolve, labels to be eroded or other damage.  
Keep the unit away from strong magnetic fields  
(TV sets, computer monitors, large electric  
motors, etc.).  
Relative humidity should be 30 to 90 percent.  
As the unit may become hot during operation,  
always leave sufficient space above the unit for  
ventilation. Do not operate this unit in a confined  
space such as a bookcase, and do not put anything  
on top of the unit.  
If the unit (or a compact disc) is moved from a cold  
to a warm place, or used after a sudden temperature  
change, there is a danger of condensation; vapor in  
the air could condense on the internal mechanism,  
making correct operation impossible.  
Power supply  
Attach the DC plug of the supplied AC adapter to the  
DC IN jack on the rear panel and connect the power  
plug to a standard electrical power outlet.  
Pressing the POWER switch on the rear panel lights  
up the display. After a brief start-up screen, the home  
screen will appear.  
Sleep function  
If playback is paused and the unit has not been used  
for 30 minutes, the unit will automatically go to  
sleep, stopping the CD mechanism and turning off  
the backlight.  
TASCAM CD-DJ1  
 
 
1- Introduction  
Handling of compact discs  
The CD-DJ1 has been designed for the playback of  
CD-DA (standard audio) format discs and MP3 files  
recorded on the discs using the ISO9660 format: In  
addition to ordinary 12cm (5-inch) and 8cm (3-inch)  
CDs, it can also play properly recorded CD-Rs and  
CD-RWs.  
Keep discs away from direct sunlight, and places  
of high heat and humidity. If left in such places,  
warping could result.  
Do not affix any labels or stickers to the label side  
of the disc. Do not write on the disc with a ball-  
point pen.  
Always place the compact discs in the trays with  
their label facing upward.  
Do not insert discs that have adhesive remaining  
from tape or stickers that have been removed. If  
they are inserted into the player, they could stick  
to the internal mechanism, requiring removal by a  
technician.  
To remove a disc from its case, press down on the  
center of the disc holder, then lift the disc out,  
holding it carefully by the edges.  
Do not use cracked discs.  
Only use circular compact discs. Avoid using non-  
circular promotional, etc. discs.  
Avoid getting fingerprints on the signal side (the  
non- label side). Grime and dust may cause skip-  
ping, so keep discs clean and store them in their  
cases when not being played. To clean the signal  
side of a disc, wipe gently with a soft dry cloth  
from the center towards the outside edge.  
The CD-DJ1 cannot play unfinalized CD-R/RWs.  
The unit may not be able to play some CD-Rs and  
CD-RWs due to disc quality or recording conditions.  
Music discs with copy control, a copy-protection  
system, have been released form several record  
companies in an attempt to protect the copyright.  
Since some of these discs do not comply with the  
CD specifications, they may not be playable on  
the CD-DJ1.  
Do not use any record spray, anti-static solutions,  
benzene, paint thinner or other chemical agents to  
clean CDs as they could damage the delicate playing  
surface. It may cause CDs to become unplayable.  
Discs should be returned to their cases after use to  
avoid serious scratches that could cause the laser  
pickup to “skip.”
