Pioneer DJM800 DJ Mixer (Warehouse Resealed) Logo
Anonymous Posted on Jan 30, 2011

I have owned my Pioneer DJM800 mixer for a few years now. Warranty is up on it. Decided to tighten down my headphone jack cuz it was getting loose. In order to do that, i had to take the top plate off (was 12 screws and a few sliders and knobs and it came right off so I could access nut for headphone jack, I touched nothing but the headphone jack nut. reassembled and hooked back up and No Display. So, my question is will a new power supply fix this problem? Reason why I ask is because I found someone else on here having the same problem with their djm 800 and someone responded that it is likely the power supply. Going to order a new power supply but wat to be certain this is probly the porblem as to why the display won't . Everything else works but the display. Please help! Thanks in advance, - Josh

    *UPDATE*

    I have fixed the problem!! =)

    I took it upon myself to gain access to the display circuit board, I could push on the display unit (with the top plate off) and get the display to light up. I then gained access to that circuit boards under side and found that pin #1 (3.3 volt solder joint) had a cold solder joint. I could push the display down and see the pin move on the underside of the circuit board, indicating there was a cold solder joint that had fractured over time. Reflowed the joint and add a tad bit more solder (lead solder =) - too bad they have now banned lead solder. Without it, it seems that it is leading to soo many solder joint problems in electronics now days. Anyways, I am VERY happy that i was able to figure this out on my own. Just figured I'd post the results since I have noticed a few people having problems with this. If you have the same issue and can't figure it out let me know and i will help you the best I can.

    I am now back up and mixing again with a DISPLAY!! =D - Josh

This is likely a very simple problem. Look for a connector that you did not seat properly or got pulled off when you opened the unit. The cables are often short and pull off the connections or even break a wire. It is NOT likely you need a new power supply.

ALSO see if you might have pinched a wire when re-assembling the unit.

I am hooking up a Behringer xenyx 1002B Mic/Line Mixer to my Toshiba Satellite c885-S5194 laptop to broadcast online via meridix. I'm using Audio technica BPHS1 Headset Microphones with XLS plugs and 1/4...

IF your Laptop has a stereo LINE 1/8" INPUT jack, you can take the Stereo ( Left & Right ) LINE outputs on your mixer and feed into this jack on your PC. You will need a 1/4" dual plug for the mixer end to a single 1/8" stereo plug on the PC end. I suspect the problem you are having is either related to your PC only have a MIC input jack or you have something set wrong in your PC's sound config. file. More information is needed to properly solve the problem.

Getting distorted sound when connecting from mac pc headphone jack to 1/4" line in input

You are connecting a NOISY unbalnced line to a balanced input. Buy a DI box and then use an XLR to XLR to the mixer inout and run the MAC into the DI with "ground lifted". You will need to make a resistive mixer between the headphone jack and the DI as well. The headphone jack is STEREO. You COULD try a STEREO 1/8 inch splitter to 1/4 inch left and right cable... you MIGHT get away with that. Right now the left and right amps in the MAC are fighting eachother.

I've connect my sampler to the mixer. In the RCA "send" and it won't play through my speakers. I can only hear it through the headphones. What could be the problem? I'm using Numark...

You would NOT connect an audio signal to the "send" jacks... those are OUTPUTS... In doing so you are driving signal backward enough to get to the headphones. Sends and returns are NORMALLY used on a mixer for external effects. You should either be using a LINE input jack or one for "tape input".

Tap and fx buttons are stuck hi my name is john haill i am blind and own a djm 800 i my mum was cleaning my gear and she used polish and now there stuck

Use some CRC226 around them to break the polish residue and lube them. It should only take a little. CRC226 is available at Home Depot in the electrical dept. It is plastic safe.

Beringer Xenyx 1204fx emits a clicking sound... Sounds like a Geiger Counter for radiation in my headphones. I have used the same sound mixer in the same configurations for 3 weeks. Now I've had it...

This is likely a problem with the FX in the unit or the power to it. Does the FX display act correctly? Check that the headphone source "Main Mix" is the ONLY button down for the headphones. If not, make it so. If the clicking is still there, try the headphones in the aux send jacks... see if EITHER left or right can hear the clicking. Back in the phone jack, scan across the SOLO channel buttons down one at a time. Is there clicking? If not, the problem involves the mixing buss or further down the line. Make sure the SOLO buttons at the FX Aux sends are up.
What effect does the MODE button have in SOLO and in PFL? Is the SOLO LED off? Is the number in the FX window SOLIDLY on and not flashing?

My DJM 400 one of the outputs is louder and has distorted sound what do I do?

First verify that one channel is bad by swapping the output leads and seeing the bad audio comes from the other speaker. Assuming it does, you probably have a bad output driver on one side.
This can happen if one powers part of the system from different receptacles in a venue and electrical disturbances destroy one or more audio interconnects. ALWAYS power ALL interconnected equipment from the same source, even if you have to run an extension cord between power amps and the mixer.
You will probably need to take the unit for repair. The parts cost should be nominal, however labor could cost a bit.
Find out is SAME distortion is present in the headphone output. The circuitry shows a bunch of muting transistors and one of them could be bad... but we can do some troubleshooting externally with testing at headphone jack, etc.

How to connect my qqualizer to my djm pioneer 400 mixer

Use the stereo master outs from the DJM into the A and B Inputs of the EQ (you'll need 2 phono to Jack or 2 phono to XLR cables) then from the A and B Outputs of the EQ to the power amp/ speakers, etc (you'll need jack or XLR cables depending on what is powereing your speakers)
