I am wondering if anyone has done this or know if it is possible without
major modifications..

I am looking for a way to modify a cd player to be able to vary the
pitch approx +/- 10%.   I am hoping for there to be a potentiometer in
the unit that is used for factory adjustment to specs..  The reason I
want to do this is that I am a dj and don't want to spend $2000+ to buy
a double cd-deck unit that the only difference is the variance in pitch
control...I can build an external cueing and start/stop remote unit for
the pair..

I have not purchase a pair of decks yet, I was just wondering if anyone
knows if there is such an adjustment...  Adjusting a pot would be best,
but if I have to do it at a more advanced level, I would still be
interested in any info on how I would be able to vari the pitch..

Thanks alot.  Please email and I will do a summary if there is any
interest for such...
