God's a bitch :P

AnomalyConcept, it happens about 2 or three times per hour. Not neccesarily when I first touch it, also mid set.

I get the same, but I get shocked in my ear by my headphones. Its cause of my carpet + socks...its really bad in this house. kinda hurt the first few times, but Im kinda used to it by now.

If you live in a place where it's too cold and the weather is dry, you're experiencing Electo-Static Discharge (ESD). You can get a ESD mat and your problem should go away.

Here's a site you can get info :

sit in the bathtub with it.. :)

All jokes aside, is the wiring in your house good? Shocking is usually a result of bad ground..my ground in the house was bad, and i would always get shocked.. you can buy a plug in for your electrical outlets that will tell you if you have a bad ground or wiring.. try pluggin it in elsewhere and see if the same thing happens.

I think I could get used to such reviews :D

@ DJ Z: My mixer only has grounding wire attachments for turntables. And my setup is not on a carpet, but on cork (sp?) I am wearing wool socks though cause my room is quite cold :P
