AUDIO INNOVATE INNOFADER CROSSFADER
Audio Innovate introduces the InnoFader, a replacement for industry standard VCA faders, with the advantages of Audio Innovate´s exclusive non-contact, variable capacitor technology. With an 8mm stem, sturdy, long body construction, and without a fader brush to wear out, the InnoFader is designed to last over 4 million cycles of use - with zero maintenance.
The InnoFader uses variable capacitor technology which, unlike current optical technology, makes it 100% resistant to smoke, dust, and moisture that plague most DJ working environments. In addition, currently used magnetic faders only work in the same brand mixers, leaving DJs limited options for upgrading their mixer faders. The InnoFader is designed to work with mixers from a variety of manufacturers.
The crossfader is at the very heart of the DJing experience. So why do so many mixers come with faders that feel like an afterthought? The feel of the crossfader is as important as any other feature of your mixer, so you deserve to have the best at your fingertips.
The Audio Innovate innoFADER has been designed to completely change the way you feel about the crossfader. Having studied the habits and requirements of today’s DJs, the innoFADER offers unparalleled levels of quality and adjustability that you just don’t find in other crossfaders.
So thanks to the innoFADER, you'll no longer need to be less than satisfied with the stock fader in your mixer. Buy the innoFADER today and change your DJ life forever.
Wouldn't you rather have a fader that you just plug in and forget about? Isn't it a real pain to have to keep taking it out every few months to clean it, just so it continues to work? Such is the weakness of traditional faders - contact technology that will eventually break.
The innoFADER has been built from the ground up to utilise a new form of non-contact technology - capacitance. For you, this means installing and forgetting about it, rather than constant faceplate removing sessions to remove the build up of daily DJ dirt.
That's not all - the innoFADER has a whole arsenal of adjustments as well as an almost universal plug and play architecture, making it the most user friendly fader in the DJ scene.
One of the biggest technological hurdles facing faders is contact. On a traditional VCA fader, the fader body runs along rails, but one side has to physically be in contact with carbon strips. This contact causes resistance to the touch as well as longer term wear, which in turn requires regular cleaning. The innoFADER however uses a unique capacitance based technology. The fader body glides on rails between 2 circuit boards which track the location and feed it back to the mixer digitally.
No contact means no bleed, which is when audio comes through even if the fader is closed - a classic problem for traditional VCA faders. This is caused by the grime from worn Carbon fader tracks as well as the gradual build up of daily DJ dirt interfering with the fader action. The innoFADER has no Carbon tracks to wear down or that can be effected by dirt which gives you 3 distinct benefits:
• The life of the innoFADER is vastly increased compared to conventional VCA technology
• Instead of very regular cleaning, only routine maintenance is needed to keep the rails running smoothly.
• A reduction in friction, leading to a smoother fader action.
So owning an innoFADER means no more fader brush cleaning, prolonged fader life and near guaranteed bleed-free smoother performance.
The success of a mixer is largely down to the feel of the crossfader. It’s a highly personal experience that is often ignored with stock faders. You need to make it your own and feel that the fader won’t break in your hands.
The innoFADER comes complete with a solid steel 8mm fader stem, designed to withstand even that hardest battering from a heavy handed scratch DJ. But thanks to specially designed polished Steel rails, the innoFADER runs as smooth as butter, responding to even the lightest touch.
But that’s not all - if you prefer a little more resistance from your fader, the innoFADER has a special tension adjust control. It's also been designed so that the tension adjust screw stays in place - no working its way free inside your fader.
Understanding that a mixer will live or die simply by the feel of the fader, we've gone to great lengths to make sure that the innoFADER offers the best possible feel for the broadest range of DJs and styles.
DJs have a tendency to be less than gentle with their faders. The traditional 4mm stem isn't that strong, which is why we use an an 8mm Steel stem. Not only does this give the greatest possible strength to weight ratio, but also adds a few extra grams to the feel - often so important for many DJs.
The rails are equally important to the feel of the fader. They're made from the finest Stainless Steel, machined and polished to the highest tolerances, and importantly humidity tested to ensure that they remain clean and smooth, not matter what conditions you work in.
For the ultimate in adjustability, the innoFADER comes complete with tension control. Essentially, this is a shaped washer mechanism, acting against the top rail and adjusted with a small screw. With one turn of the supplied adjustment tool, you can adjust the feel of the innoFADER from ultra loose (for the turntablists) right up to pitch fader style firm (for the mix DJs). Importantly, the tension mechanism has been designed so that the screw doesn't get dislodged with constant fader movement.
Finally, to eliminate the much despised "clicky" noise often experienced with other faders, the innoFADER has Silicone rubber stoppers at the end of the rails.
We all like to do things in our own special way don’t we? But when you’re trying to fit a different fader inside your mixer, the likelihood is that it’ll be a less than straightforward process.
Right out of the box the innoFADER should fit into your mixer. But not all mixers are created equally, and the chances are you’ll need to break out wire cutters and a soldering iron to fit your new fader.
Unless you have an expensive scratch mixer, the odds are that you’re left with little in the way of fader curve control. But here at Audio Innovate, we feel that every DJ should have as many controls as possible to tweak.
Curve control is common across a broad range of mixers, but is often not as good as it could be. Far less common is lag adjust, and is often manually modded by users. The innoFADER however gives you control over both - directly from the fader itself.
So with the innoFADER, you can now have professional level adjustments, even on the oldest or cheapest VCA based mixers that may not have had any adjustments at all.
Just drop an innoFADER inside and you’re playing in the big leagues.
The key points of the InnoFader are as follows:
No bleed/cracking
Even the best conductive plastic (CP) or carbonized conductive plastic (CCP) contact faders will eventually bleed and require cleaning. Since the InnoFader is non-contact, no cleaning is required.
Sturdy design - 8mm stem, long body type
Many DJs have experienced issues with bent or broken 4mm fader stems, thus the InnoFader adopts the emerging standard 8mm stem, ensuring almost no chance of breaking the stem. The long body type ensure a rigid construction which when combined with the heavy stem ensures a solid and long lasting crossfader.
No calibration required
The InnoFader is designed to automatically compensate for circuit tolerances to the point that no calibration is required to adjust for the <0.5mm tolerance on fader cut-in position.
Standard VCA output
Many manufacturers design their faders to work with custom outputs, and interfaces that make plug and play with 3rd party faders almost impossible. The InnoFader will work as a drop in replacement for analog faders. Why?
1. The pinout is a 4 pin industry standard +Vin, VCA out #1, VCA out #2, and ground. 2. The VCA out signals are from 50k digital potentiometers with 256 taps, and the output can short to Vcc or ground for a full on/off signal. 3. The entire fader power draw can be as low as 0.5mA so that circuits designed for low power 50k fader connections will work.
Ultra wide range tension adjustment
At the lightest setting, the InnoFader can move with the slightest tap. On the other extreme, the InnoFader requires a steady push to move it. DJs can adjust the InnoFader to any tension setting depending on mixing style.
Adjustable curve
Analog VCA faders have fixed A, B, or D-type curves. The InnoFader has an output curve adjustment to fit any of these configurations. In addition to fitting these configurations, the InnoFader can be set for full cutting at the top or bottom.
Single cut-in adjustment for both sides
This ensures that the InnoFader can work in any sized fader slot. Since the adjustment is electronic, the actual active fader area can be shortened, unlike others which have a fixed active fader area. This often requires adjusting the mixer to fit the fader, while the InnoFader can be electronically adjusted to fit the mixer.
Not affected by dust, smoke, temperature, moisture
One main drawback of optical faders is that they stop working once there is internal dirt buildup. The InnoFader´s electronic signals are unaffected by environmental factors experienced in harsh DJ environments.
No cleaning required
Unlike other contact fader technologies, only routine light maintenance is required to keep the rails lubricated and free running. Because of the closed construction of the long body, this is kept to an absolute minimum.
Reasonable cost The InnoFader comes in at a very reasonable price for the quality and performance it offers.
The innoFADER boasts another first for any crossfader - onboard adjustment of both the cut-in point and the curve
In most cases, mixers do not offer cut-in point control, instead being left to under the hood manual modifications to reduce the unusable dead space of the fader. The innoFADER however offers a “cut-in” adjustment and depending on your needs, can be used to reduce or increase the dead space.
Often the factory fitted curve just isn't good enough. Sometimes the cut isn’t sharp enough, there’s a “dip” in the middle, or the DJ just wants a curve that feels more natural. The innoFADER “curve” trim pot offers full control of this mid point all the way to pin-sharp at either end of the curve, keeping even the most fussy of DJs happy.
Mix DJs however have need of greater control over the fader curve linearity. Not all mixers are created equally so the innoFADER has the ability - via an easily removed jumper connector - to fix the mid-point and adjust the curve accordingly. This can especially come in handy for mixers with mono VCA crossfaders, allowing you to sharpen or soften the curve equally for both channels.
The innoFADER gives you all the options you could ever need to achieve the perfect curve response on mixers that might not even have any curve options at all.

Basic Installation
Please follow these steps when installing the Innofader. For more advanced installations, please modify the instructions as directed in other sections of this manual.
- Turn off the mixer and disconnect the power
- Remove the faceplate. Most faceplates can be removed by removing the screws and knobs from the top. In some special cases the screws may be located on the sides of the mixer.
- Remove the original fader. If there are 4 screws, remove the outer 2 screws first, then pull the fader out of the mixer, and finally remove the 2 inner screws connecting the fader to the fader plate. Otherwise just remove the 2 screws securing the fader to the mixer
- Disconnect the fader cable from the mixer to the original fader.
- Plug the fader cable from the mixer into the J11 test input on the “Ecler Eternal Adapter”.
- Turn on the power, making sure that no metal parts from the fader touch metal parts on the mixer The green LED should light up.
- Turn off the power and install the Innofader. Put the faceplate back on and put the knobs back on all of the switches and faders. To ensure that no exposed metal parts short out, please tie down fader cables using the twist ties included in the kit. You may also use electrical tape to ensure parts are properly insulated.
- If the fader cable from the mixer doesn’t fit, or the red LED comes on during the fader test, please skip to the Electronic Adapters section for further instructions.
- If the fader height is wrong or doesn’t fit properly, please skip to the Mechanical Fitting section.
- For Ecler mixers, we strongly urge you to follow these installation steps for insulating the fader because otherwise, there is a strong possibility that the Innofader will malfunction otherwise.
- If the fader doesn’t work or the way you want, please skip to the Customization or Maintenance sections.
- Some line fader installations will have unusual results. Please skip to the Line Fader Installation section for further instructions.
Adapter boards have no insulation. Please use extreme care in installation to make sure they do not short to other parts in the mixer. Please tie down fader cables using the twist ties included in the kit. You may also wrap adapter boards in electrical tape to ensure they are properly insulated.
Please use the Ecler Eternal Adapter Board for any mixer faders marked “Eternal Compatible”. When plugging in and testing the fader (instructions 5 and 6 on the Basic Installation), please add the following steps:
- Plug the fader cable from the mixer to the J8 connector on the Ecler Eternal Adapter Board
- Plug the J7 Innofader cable into the J11 socket on the Ecler Eternal Adapter Board
- Turn on the power, making sure that no metal parts from the fader touch metal parts on the mixer The green LED should light up.
- Disconnect the power. Disconnect J7 from J11 on the the Ecler Eternal Adapter board. Reconnect J7 from the Ecler Eternal Adapter board to the Innofader cable.
If for some reason the green LED doesn’t come on, please contact Audio Innovate for further assistance.
Please use the Misc Adapter Board if the red LED comes on during installation or the mixer fader connector doesn’t directly fit the Innofader. When plugging in and testing the fader (instructions 5 and 6 on the Basic Installation), please add the following steps:
- Plug the fader cable from the mixer to a connector on the Misc Adapter Board which fits correctly. You can refer to the List of Mixers Compatible with the Innofader first.
- Plug the J4 Innofader cable into the J11 socket on the Ecler Eternal Adapter Board
- Turn on the power, making sure that no metal parts from the fader touch metal parts on the mixer The green LED should light up. If the red LED lights up and there is another connector on the Misc Adapter Board which fits, please turn off the power and repeat steps 2 and 3.
- Disconnect the power. Disconnect J4 on the Misc. Adapter Board from J11 on the the Ecler Eternal Adapter Board. Reconnect J4 on the Misc. Adapter Board to the Innofader cable.
If for some reason the red LED still turns on, please contact Audio Innovate for further assistance.
Before installing the Innofader (steps 7 and 8 on the Basic Installation), reduce the fader height as follows:
- Check the height difference between the original fader and the Innofader stems without the cap installed. You can also refer to the List of Mixers Compatible with the Innofader for instructions under “mechanical fitting”
- Place the self-adhesive washers on the 2 crossfader mounting holes. Use one self-adhesive washer on each mounting hole – 2 total – for each 0.5mm height reduction you want to achieve
- Note when reinstalling, use screws included with the Innofader if necessary to assemble the fader with the different height.
Before installing the Innofader (steps 7 and 8 on the Basic Installation), increase the fader height as follows:
- Check the height difference between the original fader and the Innofader stems without the cap installed. You can also refer to the List of Mixers Compatible with the Innofader for instructions under “mechanical fitting”
- Place the self-adhesive washers on the outside holes of the fader plate. Use one self-adhesive washer on each mounting hole – 2 total – for each 0.5mm height increase you want to achieve
- Note when reinstalling, use screws included with the Innofader if necessary to assemble the fader with the different height.
For some Stanton and Allen & Heath mixers using P&G faders, the A&H / Stanton Adapter Plate is necessary to install the fader. Simply use this fader plate instead of the standard mixer fader plate when reinstalling the fader in steps 7 and 8 of the Basic Installation Instructions
Ecler Mixers: Insulating the fader
There is a strong possibility that the Innofader will malfunction if you don’t take extra steps to fully insulate the Innofader when installing it into an Ecler mixer. It is possible the Innofader may work properly initially, but after installation or extended use, the paint used on the Ecler screws may chip off and the Innofader case may electrically connect to the mixer. When this happens the Innofader will have noise on the fader output.
We strongly urge you to take the following extra steps to fully insulate the Innofader when installing it into Ecler mixers:
Prior to installing the Innofader (steps 7 and 8 on the Basic Installation), place two self-adhesive washers, one on each of the 2 crossfader mounting holes.
During installing the Innofader (steps 7 and 8 on the Basic Installation), please use the two M3 6mm insulating screws included with the Innofader to install the Innofader. These screws are the shorter screws with the slotted flat head included in the Innofader kit.
When plugging in and testing the fader (instructions 5 and 6 on the Basic Installation), you can customize the fader as follows. Make sure during these tests that you hook up audio to the mixer to double check your settings.
Cut-in point – same both sides
The cut-in point can be adjusted on the Innofader by turning the trim pot marked “cut-in” to the desired position. See the below pictures for some standard settings.
Innofader Versions
The first production batch of Innofaders came with 2 different trim pot configurations. Please refere to the relevant pictures for adjustments.
WARNING – the fader may not cut out on the "No dead space" setting unless the mixer has an additional cut point adjustment.
Cut-in point – set both sides independently
You may wish to set the cut-in point differently on both sides or adjust the Innofader to fix the difference between cut-in points. Follow the Basic Installation steps 1-3 to access the Innofader if it is already installed. Do the following to calibrate the fader for different cut-in points on both sides.
- Connect J12 from the MISC ADAPTER BOARD to J1 on the Innofader. Make sure that the Innofader metal parts aren’t touching the mixer, and turn on the mixer power. Move the Innofader knob all the way to the left as shown below.
- Slide the Innofader all the way to the right. If you want the right side to have more cut-in space than the left, then pull the fader back to the left accordingly.
- Press SW1 and release. This stores the right side calibration point into permanent memory on the Innofader microcontroller.
- Slide the Innofader all the way to the left. If you want the left side to have more cut-in space than the right, then pull the fader back to the right accordingly.
- Press SW1 and release. This stores the right side calibration point into permanent memory on the Innofader microcontroller.
The curve can be adjusted on the Innofader by turning the trim pot marked “curve” to the desired position. See the below pictures for some standard settings.
Innofader Versions
The first production batch of Innofaders came with 2 different trim pot configurations. Please refere to the relevant pictures for adjustments.
Some mixers only use a mono signal from the VCA fader. If this is the case for the crossfader and you wish to make curve adjustments, we recommend the “X” setting which shorts the X/Y jumper. You may also do this to get an extra set of specialty curves which flatten in the middle.
Move the fader to the center so that the tension adjust screw shows through the center hole.
Turn the screw clockwise to increase the tension or counterclockwise to decrease the tension.
Follow the Basic Installation steps 1-3 to access the Innofader. Perform the maintenance on the fader while it is outside of the mixer.
NOTE: Only use the Caig Lube included with the kit or if you purchase the identical lubricant directly from Caig Lube. Using the wrong lube may either damage the fader or not allow you to achieve the optimal fader smoothness.
- Cut off the protective plastic tip, and insert the mini tube included in the Innofader kit to allow 1 small drop of lube to be applied at a time.
- Move the fader stem all the way to the left or right so the top rail is visible hows through the center hole.
- Apply a drop of the Caig Lube included with the Innofader kit onto the top rail through the tension adjust hole. Move the fader back and forth a few times to work it in.
- Apply a drop of the Caig Lube onto the bottom rail. Move the fader back and forth a few times to work it in.
You can do this to rebalance the Innofader if the cut-in on both sides has become inbalanced or the range on the cut-in adjustment is no good. Recalibration sets the maximum active area on the fader. Recalibration occasionally is necessary if you drop the Innofader or bend the case.
- Connect J12 from the MISC ADAPTER BOARD to J1 on the Innofader. Make sure that the Innofader metal parts aren’t touching the mixer, and turn on the mixer power. Move the Innofader knob all the way to the left as shown below.
- Slide the Innofader all the way to the right. If you want the right side to have more cut-in space than the left, then pull the fader back to the left accordingly.
- Press SW1 and release. This stores the right side calibration point into permanent memory on the Innofader microcontroller.
- Slide the Innofader all the way to the left. If you want the left side to have more cut-in space than the right, then pull the fader back to the right accordingly.
- Press SW1 and release. This stores the right side calibration point into permanent memory on the Innofader microcontroller.
Standard install using crossfader power
First follow steps 1 through 4 from the Basic Installation process. Then do the following:
- Install and test the crossfader according to steps 5 and 6 of the Basic Installation process, but using an adapter if necessary.
- Connect faders as shown in the below picture. Use adapters on the line faders if necessary. NOTE: Since the power comes from the crossfader, steps 5 and 6 from the Basic Installation process are not necessary. Note the following:
Connect one line fader power cable to each fader, then connect the 3 cables to the Mini Line Fader PC Board. As expected, the horizontal connector is for the crossfader and the vertical connectors are for the two line faders on the Mini Line Fader PC Board.
Replace the factory installed main cable marked “TO MIXER” with a Line Fader Innofader Cable for both of the line faders but not for the crossfader.
- Using the twist ties included with the Innofader, the adapter boards can be tied together to prevent shorting and to reduce the chance of wires moving around and causing audio interference. Many mixers can be accessed from the bottom, which makes this much easier.
First follow steps 1 through 4 from the Basic Installation process. Then do the following:
- Set the line faders to the maximum position and secure them inside the mixer so they don’t interfere with the other faders that will be installed. NOTE: if you can figure out the fader circuit setting at maximum volume, you can also permanently set the fader connection on the line faders to the same setting.
- Install and test the crossfader according to steps 5 and 6 of the Basic Installation, but using an adapter if necessary.
Make cable changes as such:
A: Remove the black wire from the Line fader Power cable.
B: Disconnect the yellow control cable from the crossfader. Pull out the green control cable on the line fader and replace it with the yellow control cable from the crossfader.
C: Disconnect the green control cable from the crossfader. Pull out the yellow control cable on the line fader and replace it with the green control cable from the crossfader.
D: Connect one of the wires removed in step A from the crossfader connector 2nd pin from the left to the left line fader connector.
E: Connect one of the wires removed in step A from the crossfader connector leftmost pin to the right line fader connector.
-
To remove a cable wire, simply lift the connector plastic up using the mini flat screwdriver as shown in the below picture and pull the wire out at the same time:
Connect faders as shown in the below picture.
Set the cut-in point to the absolute tightest on the line faders.
- Go to the section Cut-in Point – Set Both Sides Independently and follow the instructions for recalibrating the fader. Make sure you calibrate the bottom point of the fader about 1.5mm away from the bottom and calibrate the top point as far to the top as possible.
NOTE: Failure to follow steps 5 and 6 properly will result in a sharp sound cut at the top of the fader. Make sure you read and understand these steps and follow them carefully.
- Connect the crossfader and power on the mixer
- Set the mixer curve to a soft curve
- Set the crossfader and line fader curves to the curves you wish to use during mixer operation.
Mods for Controlling the Innofader Externally
Reverse
Use a switch to swap the yellow and green wires going from the fader to the connector. NOTE: If you are doing the Mod for VCA Line Faders, only do the reverse mod on the crossfader.
Curve and Cut-in
Remove the trim pots from the fader, and connect external adjustments. The middle position is the wiper. We recommend that the external adjustment maximum resistance is between 10k and 250k. NOTE: If you are doing the Mod for VCA Line Faders, only do the cut-in mod on the crossfader.
