**Large Crossfader needed**

Hey guys, I was looking to see if someone can point me in the right direction. I’m looking to swap out my normal cross fader with one twice it’s size or similar to Ean’s in his superssfader video. I don’t want to open the unit, just slip of the old and slip on the new. Is there a crossfader out there than can accomidate my needs?

After no responses and a fruitless google search, I decided to buy a clay apoxy and modify the fader knob my self. I sanded it down and I think it came out pretty sharp. Not to mention its functionality has improved my crab scratch. 😃

That is awesome! You made your controller your own. The only other source for knobs for linear potentiometers I know of are in the [Mouser.com](http://Mouser.com) catalog:

[http://www.mouser.com/catalog/634/1769.pdf](http://www.mouser.com/catalog/634/1769.pdf)

So you did the right thing and made a custom knob.

P.S. Now you can Pimp the rest of your Controller!

Bento switched the crossfader-“handle” with the one he had on his nocturn.

Supposed to be pretty awesome too. 😃

I originally wanted to find another fader to switch out as well. But I ended up having to roll the dice with this apoxy and mold a cast around the SE’s original fader. It’s permanent, but I wouldn’t want to go back to my old fader anyways.
