The volume levels on one channel of my Z1 keep jumping

HowardIbiza

Just travelled to France for a series of gigs. Did a sound check and discovered that one of the levels is jumping very erratically. Not sure if the controller has been damaged in transit - I was carrying myself at all times and am unaware of any accidents.

Cool cool. Than means there is probably something physically wrong with the fader.

You can read up on how to clean faders. I think the first step is to used compressed air.

Does the z1 send wrong midi signal to traktor? I mean do you see the deck volume change inside traktor without you touching anyting?

HowardIbiza

Yes. That is exactly what is happening. Only on the right channel.
