Would that stuff work on pitch control on CDJs?

Interesting topic! I'm gonna see if it'll sort out ch1 on my djm 600, I was wondering what might be causing a loss of sound in one speaker from time to time. I initially thought it might be the rca connectors at the back but i do know how to look after my stuff so yeah... it looks like the real cause is loosening of the fader connectors from travel. Will report back on this lol

+1. I think it's terrible that so may people have this problem with mixers that easily cost upwards of $1000, and "have taken care of it".

Shit components, shitty build.

When are people going to wise up?

I wouldn't like to have to replace a fader on a xone or other mixer though...Do they even make replacement line faders? Maybe its a money making scam on pioneers part! lol But it isn't a laughing matter when you're relying on said piece of equipment.

Nah, it's not a money making thing - service operations are loss making parts of their businesses model and same can be said for most audio manufacturers.

When launched, A&H used penny and giles faders for that very reason - you get years of abuse out of them and faders are really the one thing are going to go first.

could this be because the 800 and the 3000 had a user-install option for the rotaries? of course the channel faders have to be reasonably simple to remove so clyumsy folks like me could do it, hence there's a chance they could be unseated with moving around?
that said, I never had a fader come loose in 6 years with a 3000
