eggssell Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Well fuck me gently with a chainsaw. Scrap all my advice my mixer doesnt have a ground anyway. What the hell was i thinking. I guess gandy was right, maybe its my english. Big fucking good being in the top five percentile for english in the hsc has done for me. Anyways bad ass fail.

anditz Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 eggssell, you can't take the power cord out the back of the djms, so you can't replace itthe cord on djm 400s and 800s are replaceable {and can be removed/just like a cdj}. but my djm was also built for australian standards, so i don't know if thats it. its all just a bit weird that this has happened with all my mixers to date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
styga Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 maybe its the powerpoint/powerboard thats faulty? cause if its happened with all your mixers then it would have to do with something other than the plugtops or something faulty cause the chances of all 3 having the same problem is fairly low. so maybe try changing the powerboard that you are using Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anditz Posted September 27, 2011 Author Share Posted September 27, 2011 yeah i think you might have a point styga. thing is though its happened at 3 different locations, just why i was asking if its happened to anyone else. you can only feel it if you A: get zapped or B: run your knuckle over the top (you'll feel it vibrate). its possible people just haven't experienced it by chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florro Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I had the same problem on a DJM-600 when running active audioline speakers. The Pioneer mixers have an unusual XLR connection at the rear which also means the speakers arent balanced properly. Have a look at the back of the mixer, it tells you which pin in the XLR is hot, cold and ground. I think from memory 1 was ground where normally 1 is hot. I made up my own XLR connection to balance the speakers and we also have had it shock us anymore. So I assume that was the fault. We also changed all the other leads at the same time so could have been something there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
