S2 Cross Fader Bleeding
After scratching with the S2 for about 3 days I noticed that the crossfader is bleeding. I just bought it! Spent scratching on it for about 4-6 hours straight each day. Anyone else have this problem?
Would the innobender fix this? Thanks!
If it actually fits then more than likely yes, but installing it will void your warranty.
honestly mate, im not sure if the S4, or the S2 has any success story on fixing up new faders yet
There’s been at least one S4 that had a successful fader install, don’t know about S2.
oooh. Where!!?? i wanna change my xfaderzz 
Dude… that freaking sucks! I didn’t even realize that a midi fader could bleed!
I just got an S2 too and would be really interested in fitting the innofader innobender or any other contactless fader to avoid any channel bleed.
I’ve seen info for the innobender in the s4 but nothing in regards to the S2.
So if anyone has info post up please!

Got a message from the owner of Audio Innovate (Innofader/ bender people)
They said that they will NOT make a innofader for the s2 because of the complication in installing one. The crossfader area is right above the motherboard. You will need to solder the innofader in.
So this sucks… I really like using the S2 but if the fader is trash then I might have to return it! It sounds like it’s only a matter of time before the fader goes out on mine too.
What other recourse do we have?
imma gonna try the innofader for s4.
but so far, my x-fader has been serving it’s works very well
goner5,
did you try to clean the fader at all to see if this resolves anything? Or is the fader just toast?
I bet you could clean it up and it would be ok. Have you re-calibrated it in traktor? Im not being an ass, i just doubt its actually faulty already. I’ve cleaned up a few second hand crossfader’s that were millions of years old and they worked like new afterwards. Maybe try a can of air in there?
Saying that though, If the innofader was a bit more affordable (for me) I bet you could get one of them in there. Is it much different from the s4 setup internally?
Definitely try cleaning the x-fader with an electronics cleaner
Here’s the video of it “bleeding”
You need to adjust the x fader curve in traktor preferences. Try not having it fully to the right.
That fader looks like its working fine.
It’s on it’s sharpest.
turn it down a bit and it will behave how you want
Your fader isn’t bleeding…if u heard the sound when it was completely to the left then your fader would be fucked. That’s actually the best for flares..
