Make sure you have both the gain on the back and the volume on the front turned on, and one of your decks set to live inputs.

Root channel 4 to LIVE INPUT and then control the volume with channel 4. Thats how i got around it. Bit shit though if you has the cross fader the the left as the sound wont output. If theres a better way can someone let me know!😮

disable that channel on the crossfader (shift and turn off one or both glowing fx lights, until theyr both off) or route channel D to aux and use the dial on the front
