    Exclamation CDJ800 Mk1 HELP!!

    Hi all, i recently purchased 2 CDJ800 mk1s. I know how to mix, beat match etc. However every time i get two songs matched they go out of time 10-20secs later. Even though the songs are the same bpm. As you can imagine this gets very annoying PLEASE HELP

    If you think the problem is with players, try doing it with a same song on both players. If it stays synced - you haven't beatmatched precisely enough.

    BPM display on non rekordbox units (like the CDJ800) is not precise enough, that's why you gotta use your ears and beatmatch.

    Are you using timecode or actual cd's? Does this happen when both pitch faders are at 0.00%?

    Im using CDs. All the songs i mix with are in .wav and when I play the same song on both decks simultaneously at 0.00% pitch, they go out of time about 20 secs later.
