Change the input from analogue to line

The sound you're hearing is the timecode on the vinyl.

Let me know if that helps

If i remember correctly there is a setting in Serato as well that you can change.

If you go into the settings there should be a line-phono tick box or something. Maybe try that.

I'm using TSP now so can't 100% remember where the serato settings are but that might be it.

Otherwise it could be wiring. May be worthwhile taking all the wiring apart and starting from scratch again. Though i'd try changing the line/phono software setting first. Might be that.

Sorry i can't help any more.

Explain how it works when you hook the mixer directly up to the speakers? Maybe that'll give us an idea of what's not working.

Good stuff,

I knew there were was a setting in Serato as well somewhere.

Same thing happened to me the other night at a mates free gaf. I couldn't get Traktor to work for some reason. Found out what it was eventually and kicked myself. Though i was able to use Traktor without the control vinyls and had a laugh anyway..

Glad you got it working hope the new monitors sound sweet!
