So a few days ago I bought a CDJ-800 for €100. I test it out at the guy's place and all the buttons do what they 're supposed to do and the jog feels okay.
I think the pitch may be off or broken or whatnot because:
I try to mix a few dubstep tracks one track on vinyl the other on the CDJ. I know for a fact they are both 140 BPM so I don't touch the pitch fader. I beatmatch the track on the CDJ, the snares line up in my headphones so it's good.
Now when I'm mixing in the phase goes off after 5 seconds or so. Indicating that the BPM is off on the CDJ.
When I tried to figure it out I decided to treat the track on the CDJ as one with an unknown BPM, I ride the pitch fader and stuff and find out that the tracks stay in phase longer with the CDJ at -0,50% but still not quite perfect.
What's wrong and what do I do ?
(it can't be the 1210s, had them serviced in february and mixing 2 records works just fine)
