I recently was playing and noticed that the tracking bar was half way red.. It was the first time that happened since I have been with the hard ware for like an year now working flawless not a single problem.
then It happened that after like 20-30 mins it kind of distorted and I had to kind of replay the previous song I had played.stopped checked everything and it was fine again I tried and it played OK.
Then when I got home I tried again to play it and the left deck again was showing the same and eventually the right as well started doing the same (half way red with some distortion)... I dont know what could be the problem.
I have enjoyed my quality sound and mixing at the club all thru till recently.Help me out.I use CDJ's not vinyl

Have you checked the Calibration screen to see if you are getting Green Circles?

What CDJs are you using?

Hi RafaelM
I checked all that and its ok, though it was initially showing circles like the one that says on the manual that could be the needle is dusty thats if I am using Vinyl.Anywas I am uninstalling to re install just been told by a friend that could also work.
I have 850 at home,at the club i got 1000 & 2000

Make sure you have the Phono/CD Switch on the SL2 set to CD when using CD Players and Phono when using Turntables...
