MIXARS DUO faders review ..

- Here is a video I just did about my likes and shortcomings on the new MIXARS duo . Also my opinion of the innofader mini . I also show you all the cut in time and performance of the mini innofader after I modded it .
I have been toying with the idea about obtaining this mixer, your video contributed to my finally deciding to go in the MIXAR direction, I have rockin' the wheels since the early 80's. Great job my brother.
I just got the Duo and it's great! Thanks for your review it helped me out
Good point on the x-fader upfader material / design. I strongly agree that all 3 faders in a scratch mixer should be the same. When you look at older generations: Pioneer 707 / 909 has the same flaw (non-contact xf but quite weak alpha linefaders). Also Vestax could have done a lot better on their 05 Pro IV: excellent lightweight digital xf (I absolutely love it), but standard PCV linefaders with added resistance...why??
I've been Djing since 87. No matter what era we are in, there's always a crossfader issue. Does a Quattro innofader work on a Duo? Mine has worn out already.
I've been using this mixer for the last 5 months and though I use the upfaders a lot less than the x-fader the left one is now gone. crackling like hell and not cutting out.
damn man, from the LTA that had the loose gimbal to your up faders bleeding I'm thinking it's a good thing I didn't jump into mixars.
yeah, fur sure. This mixer has gone down 40% in price (Thomann). It's great value and a better product than the LTA's in my opinion.
thanks for the video bruh, i was one the fence on whether or not to get this cause im looking for a new mixer but your video gave me the most important info i needed with you showing its scratch ability. salute man!!
no problem the cool thing about this is if you don't want to go through the whole process of taking the mini innofader apart you can upgrade the fader.. to a full innofader pro. or now proxfade has two options now there is a new pcb that you can add to there original proxfader that makes it plug and play or they are coming out with a contactless fader www.proxfade.co.uk/products.html facebook.com/proXfade.uk/?fref=ts
how did you mode the innofader? i just got my mixer today and ive been scratching on it for a bit but i cant seem to get my swing flares on it sounding right. is there way to make the cross fader slighty smoother cause i feel like its not cutting as precise as i want.

Hey CJ nice video and thanks for the links to the fader mod.
its about a lot more than cut in time. I have the innodaer pro in my ecler and a ttm57. I actually prefer the rane fader because the cut in is just as sharp and its cut in and out points match up much better. this would be most noticeable doing chirps.....and the rane has less side to side wiggle which I like. I really like that Mixars mixer tho!
its a dope little mixer
Nice blow test. Lmao. That cut is really impressive.
They are great better than the original rane crossfader to me so sharp i put one on all my vestax classic mixer to all of them that i got crazy cherper n i putting one in my rane ttm 6
I think the new UNO will have Galileo faders on all three, cross and both up faders.
how i can confirm that?
So what mixer u recommend for smooth channel faders curves and reverse cut lag?
Is there budgeted one?
probably the most affordable would be the traktor z2 it has all mini innofaders .. but you have to remove the tension springs for ultra smooth faders
regarding your fader caps I would contact Eliot, I'm certain he can get you some beefier fader caps for you.
Hi, I have a brand new Mixars Duo and when I'm scratching the fader cap comes off several times. I think it's strange for a "professional" battle mixer... I tried to push the cap very hard but I don't want to damage the crossfader. Any Suggestion? Thanks
Mark
Take a piece of paper cut it in a thin strip bend it in half so it looks like this ^ a triangle than take that folded paper place it over the metal stem and place the fader cap down on the stem again
Thanks man! I'll try . Anyway , do you think it's normal? Does it happen with other mixer such Pioneer or Rane ?
pioneer no the rane not really any more
solid video
thank you
I dont understand some commentary about the cut in time faddin on the fader. All crossfader are adjustable, All of them! And the point as a scratcher is to have the possibility to appropriate myself my gear by adjusting it.
Ok, I understand that people want to have the best cut in lag out of the box but I swear. It's a little investissement of time the value after is here...
Or buy The pioneer djm s-9...
For information my rane and my innofader are adjusted on the same cut. By my experience, the best compromise quickness/cut precision in cut is 0,5-0,7mm. Under the cut and the sound are not precise, beyond it's more sharp but you lost time to return to 0 point...
thanks for your input
CJ Scratch you're welcome ; ) if it can help !
this cross looks already sharp in cut, it's cool.
Hi cj nice review, i have 1 question, i got a mixars duo mk1 but i really dont like that the crossfader cut everithing when close 1 the channel, so i cant scratch with echo effect or can drop in 1 with effects, sorry for my english i hope u understand. You know if i can fix with any mods?
Thanks

the way the mixer is set up you can only use effects on the volume faders not the crossfader
I have the galileo fader and the cut lag is nothing like that. Highly pissed off and was the main reason I bought the mixars duo.
dang i haven't had the chance to use the galileo fader yet ... ii was very interested in it as well...
Galileo is shit you need to have the pro x fade made for the duo but they don't tell you that. False advertising
@@mrkdude3943 i have Galileo not bad but i just cant get it to do certain cuts on point not sure why i have an innofader might shove that in
Hi, I'm looking for a new scratch mixer, I'm a traktor user and I hesitate between the Mixars Duo and the Z2 of Native Instrument, is there a big difference between the two mixers, , But mixars works well with Traktor?
mixars duo is serato based.... traktor if you have a traitor box
Pioneer S9
hey man quick question, when you say the cut in time is better than the rane 62 is that before you mod it or after? if i don't mod the mini fader is still a good fader to scratch?
yeah that is before the mod it seems like the mini innofader has a faster cut in time
thanks man, so i'm definitely thinking of getting this mixer
NiZZ BiZZ its a cool mixer got a lot of features ..
How did you remove the tension spring?
c.j. I am learning how to scratch and I wanna know what is the best scratch record do u recommend for me to use something with a lot of ooh's and aah's
go to thudrumble.com plenty of scratch records to choose from
its true, why the tention springs? love your shit CJ
Thanks bro
Is it possible to replace the channel faders with any other fader? So if the alpha channel fader starts to crackle, it cannot be replaced?
as far as i know there isn't any
but the new duo mk2 has different faders in it
CJ Scratch so if the mk 2 has new channel faders, if they start to crackle or just go wrong can they be replaced? can they be replaced with the new Galileo faders pro x fade
thanks for your help
i haven't got my hands on an mk2 just yet .. i would suggest contacting mixars
I'm in the market for one of those you just influence my decision it's fine though I'm getting it
the newer model has different faders in it now .. no longer mini innofader ... now pro x fade
hey CJ. is there a cross fader I can get that I don't need to do surgery on. Lol? I will ruin my entire duo. lol
get the innofader pro2 its smooth out the box
the reason Mixars will not use Innofader is because Elliot told them he will not put his brand on a company who so blatantly bit other manufacturers styles. This DUO is a straight rip off of the Z2. Good luck with pro-x faders, Innofader are a much better product.
we can replace this channels faders for mini innofaders?
as far as i know that is not possible ... especially after the falling out between audio innovate and mixars
I’am disturbed by the loud click noises from the crossfader, for home it’s annoying. it doesn't matter in the club
