[SOLVED] ddj-sx fader issues

I recently purchased a ddj-sx. My cross fader does not close all the way sometimes on the right side.   The left deck  still plays when the fader is completely to the right.  Forcing me to turn the volume unexpectedly and suddenly in my mixes. It did it about 6 times last night.  I have tested this at home many times.  If I let the deck play, it will "figure it out" and eventually close all the way (usually like a few seconds), but I've had times where it kept playing for close to 30 seconds. Could someone please help? I work every night, and love this machine, with the exception of this issue.

@Michael > Have you the channels set correctly to the crossfader i.e. on A or B? Have you tried adjusting the crossfader curve? Has this made any improvement / difference?

I am having a similar problem with my ddj-sx. I have the Crossfader assign set to A for channel 1 but when i set the crossfader to side B, it is still playing the output from channel 1. This is only happening for this channel and all of the other channels are functioning as they should.

hey i am having the same issue.. i actually try leaving it on side b for a while and it went normal.. but then went back playing channel1( which is set to side A) on side b. is this a hardware or software issue... cause i updated firm ware everything. if i put channel one switch to side b it won't play on side a like expected.. so whats going on.

but my problem is a different, i think yours is the software problem , in settings make sure its set to linear or power , theres a glitch in the serato that causes this to change after a restart
