    Dj Help Please!

    dont ask me why i was scratching at 9'o'clock this morning, but doing this has resulted in me killing one of my upfaders (trying something new)

    does anyone know where i can buy a vestax channel fader for an 05 ProMKIII? (product name: IF-05PCV)

    Ive looked around a few places but can only find cross faders for sale

    any help will be greatly appreciated!

    I could maybe get you one a bit cheaper, starting to sell vestax gear from my site - www.disruptivevinyl.vom - got an account open with them so if you want can see if I can get you one a bit cheaper? :D

    :eek: is it a PCV fader?!

    and... try cleaning it with a can of air - dont use switch cleaner (servisol stuff is for switches and makes a mess of sliders)

    if its bad u can take it apart and clean the lot down and re-grease it back up and it should be like new

    failing that, get your hands in your pocket and get it sorted ;) :p

    aye, i know what you mean like, i thought the one on the djm500 was nice, but mine used to heat up and become really stiff if i scratched with it for a bit

    ive been thinking about getting a penny & giles xfader for mine when the pcv goes, but going from that being so light to any other cross fader is gonna be a bit of a struggle, so it might be best to train with something thats just ok then its not such a difference when you play somewhere else

    atleast with the pcv xfader i can just stand and give it grief until my hand goes numb and it doesnt get all sticky and hot
