ProControl Fader Dead
 
Hi all,

If I move the fader on screen with my mouse, the PC fader does not move.

If I move the PC fader, the fader in PT does not move.

All the others work fine.

Anyone here have any suggestions on how to fix?

I tried the tests, reset and calibration features found in the Utilities section, but no go.

I live in NY and if anyone has a resources for a replacement fader or repair I would appreciate it.

I called the NY repair center listed on the Digi site, but they seemed not to sharp.

Many thanks...

Have you tried to disconnect the power for 10 sec?

i open it up and remove the power supply, and also made sure all the connector and tight, putting it back together right now, fingers are cross.
Still the same thing,

Go to Utility > Test > Fader > Recal button

...and press it about 1000 times.

A pulse perhaps? :rolleyes:

Best!

there are 4 or 6 screws around the perimeter of the plate the faders are mounted to
remove those and lift the plate

4, 14 so I was off

I have gotten replacement faders from Digi
Probably best to contact the closest Field Service Engineer and ask him how much
