DDJ-RX Gain Level is Low on Channels 3 + 4
With the same song loaded into all four decks, and all four Trim knobs set to identical positions, the Gain level coming out of Channels 3 + 4 is significantly lower than Channels 1 + 2. The Trim knobs have to be set noticeably higher on Channels 3 + 4 in order to get the same Gain levels as Channels 1 + 2.
Auto-Gain is off.
I've tried this with multiple tracks, re-analyzed each time.
I've tested out each of the Headroom settings - no change.
Why is this? Have I found a bug? Is this an issue with the controller itself or the rekordbox DJ software?
Thank you.

Could you confirm "4 DECK Mixer Panel" on GUI?
1.press the [MIXER] button in the upper-left corner
2.change layout mode to [4 Deck horizontal] or [4 Deck vertical]
Are all knobs（Trim / EQ) on GUI set to same position?
Are all channel faders on GUI set to same position?
Knob will be set to 0 o'clock if you double-click on the knob.
Double-clicking the Trim knobs on all four decks in the rekordbox DJ software successfully set the Gain to the same level on all four channels.
I then immediately set the Trim knobs on the DDJ-RX to identical positions, and the Gain level of Channels 3 + 4 are still lower than Channels 1 + 2. The volume difference can be heard and also seen on the Gain level meter.
It appears to be a flaw with the Gain control of Channels 3 + 4 of the DDJ-RX.

Sorry, we can’t watch your video because it set to private.
Sorry. I fixed the link. It may take a few minutes to be viewable.
Some tracks show an even greater difference in Gain level between channels 1/2 and 3/4 than the one in the video does.
Any updates as to why this is?
It's been quite annoying having to constantly adjust channels 3 + 4 even when Auto Gain is on and the Trim knobs are set to the same levels as 1 + 2 for a set.
Is my DDJ-RX somewhat defective or do they all operate this way?
