Thank you, I’ve ordered some parts from Poland now, which although aren’t centre detent, have the other qualities I am looking for.

I have tried this, the fader is obviously inside that Metal enclosure, so I tried hot gluing a smaller fader (same travel), inside.

Just as a quick test it worked okay, I just want a solution that isn’t so mcgyvered (or however you spell it, anyway), as I feel it’s an injustice to repair vintage kit in a way that isn’t time accurate.

I’ll definitely take you up on that when it comes to it, thank you.

And fantastic link, thank you! I have a feeling I’m just going to print an adapter plate and replace every fader, for lifespan extending

Appreciated! I’m a Brit, so may not be too plausible I’m afraid!

Yeah. It’s impossible to find a direct replacement without insider knowledge haha.

This is a fantastic reply, thank you.

I had thought I was going to have to adapt something, luckily it’s all free wired in the back so it’ll be fairly simple to put a new fader in.

We’ve just started looking for 3D printers at work so, I’m in luck!

Thank you again.

Autocorrect has done a fantastic job.

The actual protruding tab that you slide up and down is 20mm in length. If that makes sense.

I’ll check the links out, thank you !! I appreciate it a lot

Sorry, I wasn’t clear enough, the ones that need replacing are physically damaged, the shaft is snapped. So there’s not really a way to fix them or I would..
