what mixer are you using. -

you know, the sound is also screwed all up on my system. If i swtch to radio, its alllot louder, when its back on decks, its not as loud as it used to be, when i turn the mixer off, it makes a pop noise, and the lights stop dancing on the mixer as well.. :-?
maybe wires are touching,,, iunno...

Maan you need to play with your system a bit more - there must be a master volume on your mixer - turn that up but be careful not to overdrive your hifi (if thats what your using and it sounds like you are). If that doesnt work turn up the gain or "trim" on your mixer and again be careful you dont wanna blow your hi fi. And a pop noise is normal when you turn your mixer off it should be more of a click ... and think about it ... when you turn your mixer off there is no electricity in it .... how do you expect the lights on it to "light up and dance". The usual problem of wires crossing is getting static shock when u touch ure mixer OR a hum you can hear via your speakers - this can easily be resolved by providiing a solid grounding pathwath, making sure your phono and ure ground are sperated or by using better quality PHONO cables.
