Pioneer DJM-600 Bad feedback when i turn up the master volume

I have two technics 1200 and a pioneer DJM-600 i have the master volume on like 1.5 and the master knobs above each channel turned up about a quarter and the equlizer knobs turned up about about 2/3.

So when i turn up the master volume fader a really loud hum deep bass sound comes out. It vibrates the whole table.

Also the ground wires are messed up. Sometimes the sound will go out or lower in volume in one speaker. So i wiggle the ground wires and it will come back on.

How do i fix this its driving me crazy. any help would be appreciated.

It's not your ground wire with the issue, but your RCA cables. Try disconnecting both turntables, and connect 1 at a time, and do the same test, this way you can isolate the problem. Once you've isolated the problem, then you'll need to have the RCA cables replaced on your turntable.

You might also want to check the Cartridges as well. Sometimes a bad cartridge or headshell connection will cause this issue. Worst case scenario, its your tonearm, but that should be test last.

Also, on the rear of your mixer, there is a gain volume pot, make sure this is not maxed out. Keep it about 3/4 of they up. Again, this is on the rear of your mixer where you connect everything.

Pioneer DJM 600 Master Out 2 Left Side Doesnt Work. any help please?

it could be a few problems,

1 - the left master connection to the board has come away (you would have to open up the mixer to detect this.)


2 - the master fader is faulty (you can tell this by checking your master level indicators are both on whilst music is playing, or tapping the fader.)

My advice would be to have it serviced or if under warranty speak to the store you bought it from. But if you feel confident and know what your doing u can find replacement parts on ebay etc.


Hope this helps a little

Distorted sound on Technics SL-1200/1210

You could be getting acoustic feedback from the speakers to the TT's. Lower the volume or somehow isolate them from room sounds and vibrations.

Get yourself a manual. It will help you. You can DOWNLOAD A FREE COPY of the PIONEER DJM600 INSTRUCTION MANUAL from HERE.

Now, you have to use the CUE button function on each channel to select what you want to hear when you cue things in the headphones. Last, you control the volume of the master cue in the headphones using the CUE volume of the headphone CUE section.

Pioneer djm 600

There is a master gain volume control on the rear of the mixer, where you connect everything. Make sure it's not down.

If it's fine, then maybe them being outside caused an issue. How cold is cold? If your talking freezing, then maybe there is some issues with the solder on the pc boards. You'll have to take it to a service center at this point.

I would say, try connecting a CD player to all the channels, and try from there. If it's still the same, then you need professional help.

Pioneer DJM-600 black Professional DJ power on but not working!! i check bouth the fuses and are working i can see that is power in te mixer but no answer with any signal of leds or music signal

So you get power to the unit, but no sound coming out? How about through the headphones, do you get sound coming out of the headphones?

Are all the volumes and gains raised up? All the eq's are up? Check the back of the mixer, there is a master gain volume - where the connections are - make sure this is up also.

If nothing, then you'll need professional help at this point.

Pioneer djm 800. (dj mixer) when turning the master gain volume it doesnt turn the volume up or down unless you put pressure onto it.

apply some spray (lubricant contact cleaner)from radio shack-----to master gain volume and move it up and down many times.
