i was using the cdj 800 at guitar center. my disc would play a song in CDJ mode...then as soon as you click over to vinyl mode...the track slowly breaks and then stops. now, all i can do with the track is scratch it. I can't get it to play. WTF is wrong.
If i switch back to cdj it stats playing again, then over to vinyl and it breaks and stops.

no i dont mean anything is touching the platter, i mean the actual platter is pressing down in the mechanism. that would explain why the cd plays fine in CDJ mode (as the platter isnt used)

go and try again and touch the platter with your hand there is a light that lights up when you touch the platter, this is from what i remember when i used the 800. If no lights light up that means its busted, like most of the 800 that have been coming out

yup..sure nuff...no light comes on when you press the platter down on the 800 at guitar center.
off topic...is the 800 able to handle VBR mp3? i see it doesnt support WAV format...devastating news....

800 does not support any digital files only regularly burned cd's (if that makes any sense). No mp3 cds in other words except for the new mk2's
