Pro X Fade and Urei - modding ahoy!
Posted by Gizmo on March 2, 2006

We at skratchworx like the Urei mixers. Some of the team covet the 1620 and the others that have far too many channels for my liking. For me though, it's all about the 1601S - the 2 channel wonder with the sampler. But sadly, it has a pants crossfader - which is a surprise as the rest of the mixer is such a high spec. So Now Urei have got their proper scratch head screwed on and have released instructions which show you how to replace the stock fader with the PXF. YAY!

Having both of these items in the skratchlab, I might just attempt to carry out this transplant. It looks pretty easy really. Check out the official info here.

Disclaimer: This work is carried out at your own risk. Only attempt it if you're comfortable with a soldering iron. If you break anything, it's not Urei's fault. And you can probably kiss goodbye to your warranty as well. None of this info is made claer on the Urei page or in the instructions so be warned!

Will I ever be able to get a Pro X Fade in America? Evertime they come out with a new commercial or site/advert I get really excited about one but then fall into dispair as they won't send me one.

Cutloose, we're trying to find a good retailer partner to work with in Australia. Let me know if you can recommend anyone?
