Default Hotrod your MC Control or Mix?

Has anyone here ever tried "hotrodding" their Artist Series hardware? I was thinking specifically of the faders. How much trouble woud it be to install upgraded quality faders that would (hopefully) give a smoother performance and maybe even calibrate properly.

Anyone here ever consider that and/or research that option?

Most faders have different characteristics that take weeks to get right in firmware, so not really easy to just drop another in. Also there aren't that many low profile, motorized touch enabled faders out there. I think Penny and Giles have one but not sure you would be able to get it to work right, if it even fits.

So, even if I tried using the S1 Faders (their supposedly better), they wouldn't work?
