DDJ SX2 grounding issue
My house has wall outlets that are not grounded which causes my jog wheels to not work. I ran a cable to the ground mount at the back of the controller and when i touch it the jog wheels scratch again. Is there anyway to ground it permanently when it’s connected to a non-grounded outlet ??

It's interfering with the capacitive nature of the jog wheels. If it only happens with your output device(s) connected (eg. speakers, recorder), then try using a DI box as that will isolate the signal path via transformers.
For some reason, many pioneer controllers (all models) have the same issue. If your controller is connected to something that’s not grounded, whether it be a piece of equipment, cable, outlet etc. the controller won’t work properly in vinyl mode.
Try out the fix that worked for my ground loop interference using a noise isolator. I made a quick video.
