The DJM400 is the only pioneer mixer i like. I have the K-limited version and i really enjoed and used it a lot a few years ago! Now i'm into other stuff but i still use it in some smaller events. I love what you did, the silver faceplate really looks dope! And it looks like a pretty hard job to do, congrats! Glad to see some people still use old CDJs too, that stuff was built to last!
great job !!! amazing result
My mixer seems to be stuck on a delay or echo mode cant get the flanger or anything else to work any idea what it could be?
Hello, Nathan. Great job! Thank you for this video and work you put in creating it.
I have myself a dJm 400 which I would love to repaint faceplate. I was thinking of a way to do it and stumble up on your video. Really like your approach. Can you, by any chance, give me this sheet or a file of markings on a panel for a transfer on a vinyl?
I would much appreciate it!
Super cool repair 😮
great job, could you share the file to print the vinyl?
Amazing job man! Cool to watch all the proccess
I appreciate that! Glad you enjoyed watching the process. I had a lot of ups and downs with this ~4 month project, but I was very happy with how it turned out.
Hey! Really nice video! I have a question, my DJM-400 stopped working and I think maybe an internal fuse burned. Since you had open it, did you see if there was one? Thank you very much!
I just looked through my video again, I can confirm there is a fuse inside.
would you be willing to share the faceplate template you made :)?
