Crossfader Questions and Answers
Q: Can I install magnetic crossfaders in any other mixer?
A:
The connectors may be similar, but the circuits are very differ-
ent. Connecting the fader to anything other than the intend-
ed cable in the MP25 could permanently damage it.
Q: Can I install another crossfader in my MP25?
A:
No. The cable connections are specially designed for Rane
magnetic faders.
See Magnetic Fader Maintenance on page Manual-8.
