Hi
I recently got Cross 2.6, control vinyls and some tables so i could have a timecode setup. Everything is config'd okay, and i get sound and what not and signals are calibrated. However, I am having a few problems. When i scratch, or move forwards and backwards over a beat, there is a crackly sound and sometimes it skips - I thought this may be due to the needles but i notice no skipping when i scratch with regular vinyl. Another issue; whenever I have a channel playing and the volume is down and i turn the vol from 0 to 10 with the fader quickly during a mix the sound will cut out and skip sort for a few seconds and then it will play normally. I have had some other small problems but cannot quite think of them at the minute.
My setup is VMS 4.1 with Sony PS-DJ9000 tables.
I am currently not using any earth/ground cables could this be the source of the problem? (Haven't purchased any yet - thought they would be supplied with the tables)
