HI
I own a dac-3 which at first worked fine. but now i don’t know why the right slider just keep on moving on its self !!! i mean when i pitch the song after some time it goes up or down changing the pitch without me touching it !!!!
the big problem is i live in saudi, so i don’t have here any place to fix it if it is a hardware problem.
if so its a hardware problem should i open it and see if there is a chance to let say clean the slider or some sort ????
can you please feed me back with any information you have regarding this issue or opening the dac-3
Many Thanks

I also seem to have a similar problem on the right pitch values, and I have only had mine for like 2 weeks. I thought there was something wrong with the way I have calibrated my DAC 3.
My work around solution is this: I changed the pitch range under VDJ configuration to -8%/+8% so the non-stopping up & down pitch value movements are about 0.1% of the set pitch value, therefore hardly noticeable. And sometimes when I move the slider up & down and back to the desired pitch value, the movements stop.
I would really like to hear input from J.P. Boggis and other experienced DAC 3 users on this issue.
Cheers

You might have a faulty DAC-3 - The pitch on mine stays exactly where I set it. However, occassionally I have had it alternate between two pich % values (E.g: -0.2 and -0.3) - I think this might be caused by putting the slider exactly half-way between two values. Moving the slider very slightly stops this.
I normally use the 8% pitch range with the DAC-3 - I don't need any more than this because without using master tempo, the increase/decrease in pitch would be very noticeable (Song way too slow/fast.) Also, 8% gives you the greatest accuracy (Approx. 0.06% steps as apposed to 0.1% steps at 12% and 0.27% steps at 34%.)
