I have been fixing my house mates decks and DJM for the past couple of weeks, volume faders, toggle switches and a buggered pitch control. So he asks me to remove the click and quartz lock- never down this before but it is a simple enough Job and reversable should it all go balls up. Gonna sort the grounding out on them too, the standard grounding on technics are a pain in the harris.
I will get photo's and instructions and all that posted up when I have it done too.
Happy days! :-)
Shit, this should have gone into the Tech Desk maybe?
if its easy to do id like to know, its a right pain in the arse that pitch lock
It isn't the hardest operation to be honest mate. I will post up pics and instructions. The biggest pain in the arse so far repairs wise is replacing toggle switches on the DJM, christ almighty you have to open up EVERYTHING!
Should be good this when you get the information and pics up mate! Nice one!!
Bigtime, I do deck clinic at my gaf every weekend pretty much now, just general maintenance.
I replaced the audio cables on one set last week, makes some difference. It's going to be a a couple of weeks before I get my new PC so I will get pics up etc as soon as I do. :-)
Did a bit of a search for the hack for you mate, cos it might be a while before I can get my hack up.
Here's a linky poo: http://technics.junglist.pl/hacking_technics.html
Tis exactly the hack you need.
Wicked hack..
danny, how do i stop the central 0% physical lock? get rid of the click in other words... damn i hate that thing.
Ok, inside the pitch control housing there is a notch at true zero position which catches a little ball bearing which is in the actual pitch control. All you need to do is pop that little ****er out and job done. I will bosh up some pics if you want?
I should also mention at this piont that the housing is a bit of a pain to open, I'm going to need to get some pics for you Chris. Will post em ASAP.
Thanks danny thats all i needed to know. ive repiared a few 1200/10s in my time but have never been inside the pitch housing... usually cables and whatnot...
No worries mate! :-)
