DDJ-SB2 Jog wheel not responding - Rekordbox DJ software

I've been using the trial version of Rekordbox DJ in Performance Mode for a few days now and, up until a couple of days ago, my SB2 had been working perfectly fine with my Mac.

Now though, when using the jog wheel to pitch bend tracks, it responds incredibly slowly and I have to spin the jog wheel a lot more than I previously had to.

The strange thing is that it was fine when I first started using Rekordbox DJ and then it just randomly started acting like this? Don't think it's a hardware issue since everything else on the controller works fine - plus, I tested it out with Serato and it's fine.

If someone could help me, that would be amazing since I've tried EVERYTHING - I've checked the settings, have even uninstalled and reinstalled Rekordbox and still nothing. I'm going absolutely crazy so some help would be much appreciated!

Have you tried enabling vinyl mode by pressing the VINYL button on the right deck?

Hi. - Same for me. - Only the right Jog Wheel works correctly.

 

The left one takes me 25 spins for "one" spin on the right side...

Tried everything (USB HUB, another Cable, rebooting...)

Problem showed up a few weeks ago and I wasn´t using the DDJ-SB2 since then...

Tried it today: Problem still exists.

 

Looking forward for some help. Thanks

Sure... On / OFF / Slip... - Nothing works... --> I found a comment under another topic here in the forum:

The guy wrote, that (after he used a "cheap" USB-HUB - powered -) some chip or something was killed inside the controller!? - normally I don´t use a USB-Hub, when I play with the controller (only when playing with CDJs, Dicer, DJM-900) --> Not enough USB-Port on the MAC-Book :-/

Typically your MacBook should be providing enough power over USB for the unit, but if you are using a hub, it might not be receiving adequate power to function properly. Please try a powered hub.
