Both mic outputs on my ddj-sx are distorted.

what model mic?

Shure

in the back of a lot of shures (not sure on your model) there is either a LINE/MIC switch OR if you use XLR its MIC and 1/4" it;s LINE, Have you tried messing with all of that and tried XLR only cables to eliminate if maybe the SZ cannot handle a LINE in mic output?

i've tried everything on both channels 3&4 (which have the mic outputs). Very load feedback it gain on about 2 and channel on 2.

channel 3&4? are you have the SX?

yes my bad sz

sx

then yes, the SX has a known issue with the mic which if the FW issue did not fix it then it needs to be sent to Pioneer for something to be repaired/replaced from what I have read

this is my busiest season right now.

you can try putting a cheap attenuator on it to pull back the signal before it hits the mixer. Something like a Hosa one that has different DB settings you can plug in between the mixer and the mic

what do they run in price?

places like B&H have them for like $12

ok cool. having an extra mixer is a bit much.

yeah, that six, especially since you shouldn't have to do it, at least the attenuator is small and not too much of an annoyance to hook up quick

thanks bro. i still believe pioneer should replace this.

Have you updated the firmware to the newest version?  Try that first, and if you have then contact Tech Support.
