Hyype Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 i'm having problems with my numark mixer... it worked fine for a year [warranty expired last week] and all of a sudden it turned into a christmas tree with flashing lights and no sound... i have no idea what caused it, but whatever it is, it's messing up a lot of things... if anyone has/had a similar problem, please hook a brotha up with a solution or post an address of a repair shop close to Aventura/NMB... kthx...

mrmatas2277 Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 damn bro...that sucks...two things u can do: 1) buy a new mixer (NOT a Numark) or call Numark directly and explain to them what is happening...they will prob. fix it for u for a price and of course dont forget shipping costs...i personally dont like Numark, even though that model of Numark brings some effects, i would have gone a diff. route...visit Numark online or buy a new mixer...i dont know of anyone that could fix mixers, and even if they could..would u trust some dude off the street to fix ur mixer with all the effects? i would much rather send it back to Numark and let them handle it...

MIRZA Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 You could try Sam Ash they have a repair department at least the one in margate does try them out if not just by a new one like mrmatas2277 said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pod Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 I'm not sure, but drop Nexusgroove a line, he has contacts with Numark reps through his rental business.Back when I did sound reinforcement and lighting as a side job, we had a Numark 1720 mixer. Good for house parties and shit, but horrid for anything remotely resembling a real gig. Most of the time we'd rent a UREI or a Rane, or worst-case a DJM-600...usually the artists specked that anyway, so it was cost-effective in the end. Even for home use, I wouldn't bother with any of the second-tier brands like Numark, Gemini, and such...save your bucks and get a Rane, Stanton, or a Pioneer. Road case too, the leading cause of mixer death amongst mobile DJs is accidents during transport. Even a minor bump can knock something askew in a lesser mixer and cause issues. Plus, road cases rock and make you look cooler. Get Calzones or Pelicans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyype Posted March 22 Author Report Share Posted March 22 thanks for replies... i'm taking this bi0tch to the shop in a few...btw, i owned a 19" rane zsomething mixer before buying numark... it was great, but was giving me problems [it was prolly dropped as a kid], so i got rid of it... i also got rid of a coffin with a 19" mixer slot and got me a smaller one instead [saved lotsa dough], so numark was the best thing for it [i thought]... i bought it the week it came out, so i didn't get a chance to see bad reviews, only 'omfg i die' kinda stuff... oh well...

xxgrooveericxx Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 You can do a very dishonest thing and go buy the same mixer (if they still sell it) and return it with your old one and keep the new one.ORLike previously stated, buy a new mixer all together.

b-side Posted March 24 Report Share Posted March 24 FYI: The first series of PPD's has inherent flaws...Make sure whoever fixes it is Warranted / Authorized to do repairs on Numark productsIf not You’ll have more problems before you know it (because of the Microprocessor)If you still have not found anyone contact Numark directly (your best source for an accurate repair)Hope this helps, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
