[. . . ] __________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________ C. 3O3 PROFESSIONAL TABLETOP CD PLAYER INTRODUCTION Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the latest addition to the growing Stanton family. Sporting a new attitude, and a fresh, modern look, the C. 303 is a tabletop CD player with features and innovations giving club and mobile DJs a powerful, yet simple tool to mix, create, and perform their best. Designed for DJs who want to play CDs with an interface similar to vinyl, our workhorse CD player features a large jog wheel, making it possible to cue tracks easily--while an easy to read LCD display, adjustable pitch range, key lock, pitch bend, and reliable, anti-shock playback with auto cue and instant playback offer even more control and flexibility. The C. 303 even goes a step further by adding onboard sampling with four trigger buttons and cue memory, seamless looping, and a S/PDIF digital output, expanding your creative possibilities beyond that of traditional turntables.
