P&G Vs Focus Fader

The Focus Fader is an optical digital crossfader. The advantages are that there are no contacts inside the fader, which means that the audio will never degrade due to fader wear. This also means that the fader will be much smoother. Some find it too smooth. We have included the P&G fader, which is a high quality mechanical fader for those who prefer more resistance.
