Ever since DJ controllers first started appearing on the market, the more advanced scratch DJ’s were always looking for a way to make the crossfader on these units as good or close to the quality of the crossfader found on their beloved Battle Scratch Mixers. Vestax has heard their cries and has come up with an excellent solution to this dilemma. They decided to make the crossfaders on the VCI line of controllers user-friendly-upgradable to the same exact same crossfader found on their flagship scratch mixer, the PMC-05ProIV.
Vestax CF-X2 Crossfader Installation for VCI-Series Controllers
The fader is called the Vestax CF-X2 and they can be ordered through any online authorized reseller of Vestax DJ equipment. The price is going to be around $120 in the US, but the improvement is well worth the cost. The Vestax CF-X2 scratch crossfader can be fitted into the Vestax VCI-300MK2, the Vestax VCI-380, the Vestax VCI-400, and of course the Vestax PMC-05ProIV mixer.
