    Default Cross fader glitches on VCI+ Traktor Pro

    Im using a VCI-100 and Traktor Pro and sometimes my crossfader glitches and randomly wants to go to the other side on its own kind of sparatically. Im not sure if this is a midi problem or what??? Any ideas?

    is your x fader curve set to cut or to mix? if its set to cut, it might seem like it wants to jump around if the x fader is right at the point where it will cut the track in or cut it out. this happened to me a couple of times i think, when i bumped my vci.

    I've already gotten to the point where scratching had worn my xfader out, and needed replacing. Before replacing it though, take the thing out, clean it really well, put some Caig fader lube on there and see if that solves your problem.

    I've definitely seen one do that before - the fader was kinda jacked up from transportation and had to get replaced. Like you said, it would move in Traktor without even touching it. But like I said, clean before you buy.

    I'm having this issues with the Numark Stealth.

    It was working very well until today ... I didn't scratch abusively with it and it had been a month or so since I used it ... I think DUST might be the problem...

    can anyone help me? should I take it apart and try to clean it inside? or just use some compressed air? or is it another problem?

    Thanks!

    Get some of the Caig lube mentioned above. Google is your friend.
