Appendix D: Transform Switch Rotation and Fader Replacement
d.2 Pro DJ Production
From the factory, the transform switches operate vertically, that is (to get all technical for a moment) fore and aft.
You can perform a simple modification to make these switches operate sideways, or even diagonally, to suit your carefully cultivated set of operational preferences.
Tools
To do this procedure, you will need a small phillips screwdriver, nerves of steel, grit, determination, and a steady hand. People should find you ruggedly charming, yet approachable.
Procedure
1.Remove the power cord, and any other cords or cables connected to the d.2 Pro.
2.Gently place the d.2 Pro face upwards on a flat, clean and dry surface, such as the kitchen table.
3.Remove the three slider knobs, by gently pull- ing them upwards. Keep them safe.
4.Undo the five screws from the top panel and two screws from the front, as shown. Keep the screws in a safe place.

5.Gently lift off the panel, taking care not to dam- age the front panel contour knobs. Keep it in a safe place were it won’t get scratched, or fall off the table.
6.Each transform switch has
four screws, but remove only the outer two. These are black, whereas the inner
screws are bright and shiny.
7. Rotate the switch assembly
to suit your preference, and replace the two screws.
Diagonally Sideways8.If you need to replace a transform switch, gently pull it out just enough so you can reach and undo its connector. Connect the new switch securely, and screw it in the desired position. You might want to replace both switches, if they are both aged and/or had a rough life.
9.Replace the top cover, and make sure that all the meter LEDs and the Reverse LEDs are pok- ing through before you tighten down the screws securely.
