Yep somebody did a rotary mod to a dnx1500 too.

Can anybody find the pics of that mod, I cant seem to be able to find them again? If so post them.

I've been screaming this for a year

I've emailed Rane and made some suggestions... maybe a factory, 3-channel rotary will see the light of day.

I actually did this to my Gemini UMX 7, just to see if it
could be done After I found out it would work, I put
back the Faders.

I can bet, if Rane comes out with a Rotary Empath, they
will increase the price. Like it cost more to go from
faders to knob contours

I talked with someone from Rane a couple weeks ago about this.. I also sent them this suggested image which they r holding onto

Heres the Denon X1500 with Rotaries.

Anybody know what knobs the guy is using on that Empathy, not the actually pot itself, but the knob on top, looks good, would like to use that when I mod my X1500.

they look like the knobs from the A&H XONE:V6

that is sweet...I'll mod mine if a set of good rotaries are available for it, that equal the P&G faders.

Posted by Luke Terry on Apr-20-2005 23:52:

cool shizzle, would have been cooler if the plate had been altered or replaced tho

Posted by djlemeir on Apr-21-2005 02:55:

where can i buy a set of faders like that? looks really nice and simple to put together

Posted by Eric Siefer on Apr-21-2005 06:55:

Those are pretty sweet. I wish i had the knowledge to mod up some mixer, maybe I'll ask a couple EE majors out here.

Why doesnt his Empath have a crossfader?

Posted by OMNIFEX on Apr-21-2005 10:00:

He took it out.

Unless your doing Reggae or Hip Hop, you don't need it.

Posted by razzi on Apr-21-2005 10:06:

razzi.

Posted by Ludikruz on Apr-21-2005 13:09:
