It's probably oscillator driven. Sorry.

You can buy denon or Sony with pitch control for less than 500$ a pair. The
Sony has a mic in, reverb, echo and voice remover to boot. I suppose this is
NOT for mobile DJ use? If it is forget that. Forget Technics. Get denon
CD-2000F for 1000$ dual cd. No joggle disk. The disk is on the 4000.
