DJM S11 - reverb always enabled on channel 1

Issue: channel 1 on my djm s11 always has reverb engaged. This is a new phenomenon.

Theory: it appears to be mapped either to the crossfader OR the channel fader?? I can't tell because I can only hear it at volume. 

Question: How do I turn off the reverb from always playing on channel 1 of my djm s11?

In Serato, have you checked the MIDI mapping in settings to see if it is engaged with the reverb turned on?

Hi. This fixed it. Thanks!

Hello. My brand new DJM-S7 is also experiencing this issue. Unfortunately, the MIDI mappings solution above does not work for me. Channel 2 plays music and sounds without reverb. I really want to exhaust all troubleshooting options before I initiate a return.

What else could I try to eliminate constant reverb on channel 1? I just want to hear a clean, dry signal. Thanks.

Hi, My issue came back. I reached out to Serato and they suggested I reset my Serato DJ preferences (see below). I tried it and it seems to work.

 

Could you please reset your Serato DJ preferences, as per the steps below: 
 

  1. Close any running Serato software.
  2. Press 'Windows + R' on your keyboard.
  3. In the Run command box, type "regedit", and press enter.
  4. Once the Registry Editor is open, use the directory structure to navigate to the Serato folder; Computer/HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/Serato
  5. Right-click on the 'Serato' folder and re-name it to 'SeratoOLD', as per the image below;


Note: It's very important to be careful when editing your Registry, as it can have a potentially adverse effect on your operating system. You can make a back-up and restore it if you are anxious about making changes, by viewing the Microsoft article here
 

After I changed this, I just started Serato again and it seems to work.
Let me know how you get on!

Thank you for these instructions. At first, they worked perfectly...until I started resetting my audio preferences when the reverb returned. 

After some trial and error, I figured out the following setting that causes the reverb on channel 1.

In Serato DJ Pro, navigate to:

Setup > Audio

Then uncheck the box that reads: [  ] Use Laptop Speakers

Doing this eliminated the persistent reverb in channel 1 for me.
