Hej babe.
Well... a Timecode CD is a CD that you put into a CDJ(CD player) so a "Controller" such as an RMX etc can be "communicated" to by the CDJ so that it can regester the BPM and other details being sent from the CDJ. This also applies to TT records that are played on "1200 & 1210" type record players. and "read" by modern Digital Controllers.
Hope that answered your question.

DVS / Digital Systems (digital)
Digital DJ systems / programs allow manipulation and playback of digital audio files (mp3, wav, aiff, ogg) using traditional vinyl turntables or CD players via special timecode vinyl records or CDs. It seeks to cross the divide between the versatility of digital audio and the tactile control of vinyl turntablism.
Concept: Special vinyl records (or cd’s) pressed with a digital timecode are played on normal turntables. The timecode signal is interpreted by a computer, connected to the turntables through an interface (soundcard or some sort usually.) The signal represents where the stylus is on the record, in which direction it is traveling, and at what speed. This information is interpreted by the computer and used to play back a digital audio file which has been 'mapped' to the turntable.
In practical terms, this means that any audio file can be manipulated as though it were pressed on vinyl. This has a great many advantages for DJs, not least that a laptop computer can often hold tens of thousands of audio files, whilst a record box has a decidedly smaller capacity and is much heavier.
