Technics SL-1200MK5 Pitch Control Problem

As you can see in this video both turntable pitch is set at +4 when I lined up the instrumental with the same BPM the right turntable speed seems to go faster then the left which makes the sound clash. Now I don't know which turntable is messed up and if I should replace my pitch control or do the adjustment under the platter. Let me know what you think the problem is. Sorry on the qaulity of the video please help I have an up coming mobile gig. Thank You

Using serato is not the best way to check your pitch, it could be serato. Since this is an old vid I'm sure it's been figured out

[DJRayProductions]

the problems is that they are not that acurate. you can't set both tables at the same mark and expect them to run in time for ever

try running them from a separate power source

I've seen pitch control problems like this one. You're gonna need to replace the ptich control, itself. It's defective. Price is gonna cost between $26 and $64.

[boomerang3600]

does it do it when both pitches are at 0?

[allanxpoe83]

most technics r always a little faster or slower than one

I believe you have to get the decks calibrated to each other. Yeah they should all be the same, but you know how that goes. My MK2's came the same way, one is a hair bit faster than the other. The key is, don't rely on the numbers, rely on your ears.
