YOUR QUESTION:

  1. When using DVS in thru mode and playing real vinyl the audio volume seems to be increasing and decreasing constantly. Using the mixer in phono and not going through dejay pro its perfectly fine.

  2. My mixer is showing the midi settings but none of the mapped controls move inside the djay pro software.

  3. Im using a 2 channel mixer, am I still correct in thinking I can add 2x denon lc6000’s to my current setup and use 4 deck mode to control these?

Hi @Craig_s85, sorry for the delayed reply. I must have missed this one over the weekend.

  1. Are you still experiencing this issue?
  2. Did you recently update to Windows 11 25H2? If so, please refer to this help topic and let me know if it helps with your issue or not: My controller is not working correctly after updating Windows | Algoriddim Support

I hope that helps!

Hi Slak jaw

The sound issue seemed to be the audio limiter, I turned it off but then had a lot of distortion. I set the headroom to -16db and it seems a lot better though I will have to test properly tomorrow.

I am on 25H2 though the software does recognise the mixer. If I go into the midi settings each one lights up when being moved. I can try your suggestion tomorrow hopefully.

Sounds good @Craig_s85. Thanks for the follow up. I’ll wait for your additional info soon.

Not sure about the exact wiring and gain-structure, but I guess this might have something to do with sending out phono/RIAA level signal which then is amplified to a line-level signal, but when switching to “thru” mode the level is already line-level but is still amplified as it would from RIAA/phono to line level? which you correct by setting the gain to -16dB…

Maybe there is a bug in “DVS thru” mode in Djay Pro where it amplifies the incoming line-level signal to much?

Good point @olafmol. Thanks for sharing.

I think you may be right @olafmol ,ive had to up the gain to -8db now as when playing dvs I was having to max the channel level on my mixer.

Currently when playing dvs my channel level is around 3/4 & when playing vinyl in thru its about 1/4.
