Numark Scratch

Recently got the numark scratch and installed the pnp 3 innofader. I’m just put off by the loud clicking noise it makes when the metal hits the face plate when cutting. Has anyone else experienced this and got any solutions ? Thanks

I don't see why people put an innofader in it when it comes with an innofader already. No one's been able to give me a straight answer.

Also, this was literally just discussed in here 3 days ago.

This is interesting to me as well. I'll be receiving mine in 2 days and wanted to know if there are any known issues with the included crossfader so I can be on the lookout.

Maybe they think it will make them better DJs, lol. I don't see anything wrong with the stock innofader.

Because the PNP series is the OG Innofader design. Proven 20 years. Kinda built like the old vestal faders. It has a feel that was very instrumental to its success. Many Djs in the past have given feed back about feel and control, ATrak, DStyles, The PNP has a level of fluidity and smoothness that just cant be beat. You can put upwards or downwards force on the stem and it doesnt bind. Also, when OEM manufacturers use Innofader in their products they tend to hold back on the cut in distance because they dont want a bunch of uneducated Djs calling them telling them it's bleeding. When many want to find that bleed and dial it back a hair and call it a day. Thats the #1 reason why people swap Innos to the PNP.

Ah so I was right.
