No sound from speakers or headphones on XDJ-RX2

 Hi

 

Bought an XDJ RX2 yesterday. Set it all up, downloaded the new firmware plus all the drivers. Even avoided the MAC OS issue for the sound driver. Can load a track from usb or recordbox but get no sound from either headphones or speakers.

I can see the sound waves on the screen however with master on, trim levels up etc there is still no sound what so ever.  Have the settings on decl 1 and deck2.

need help- so frustrated. Im sure will be something simple.

With the XDJ-RX2 connected and rekordbox in PERFORMANCE mode, press the MIDI button, then press each of the DECK LOAD buttons (1 & 2; they will blink). Once they're connected, you'll see the collection listed on the RX2 screen.

Open the rekordbox preferences to the AUDIO tab and you should see Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX2 showing as the AUDIO device. The MIXER MODE can be INTERNAL or EXTERNAL, the chief difference being whether or not you can apply an effect to the SAMPLER (internal mixer mode required) or the AUX input (external mixer mode required).

Scroll down to find the OUTPUT CHANNELS; if you have INTERNAL selected, you'll see XDJ-RX2: MASTER and PHONES as your outputs. If you're using EXTERNAL, then you'll see separate output selections for each rekordbox deck, select the matching channel for the XDJ-RX2.

With the channel selectors for DECK1 (CH1) and DECK2 (CH2), and the trim turned up, load a track and hit play. It will be playing within rekordbox, and then you'll see levels on the channel meter (adjust the trim as necessary), then raise the channel fader and adjust the MASTER level until you see the same signal measured on the master.

Let me know if something here doesn't make sense or if that resolves your issue.

Hi Kerion. I found out not from pioneer another source, I had to allow my controller from being blocked in system preferences on my mac. Unlock it and allow it. Hope this helps as it was very frustrating for me but got there in the end. Let me know how you get on.
