Technics SL-1200 MK2 Pitch Fader SFDZ122N11-2
Technics pitch faders for the Technics SL-1200 and SL-1210 mk2 direct drive turntables. The Technics SL-1200 had three different types of pitch control slide potentiometers manufactured all with slightly different characteristics. The following information has been provided by Richard Talmage from Technics Service. He also re-engineered them for a better performance.
Pitch Fader Issues and Problems
There are a few mechanical issues such as loose parts that don't give a tight feel for control. Electrical component capacitor diminishes over time and wear down. I've calculated that a full time DJ gigging and practicing averages to 5 to 6 years of lifespan on components such as the pitch fader.
This part replaced SFDZ122N11-1 which was fitted until 1997.
Ideal for DJs for more precise and faster beat matching.
The following improvements were made to the new SFDZ122N11-2 pitch fader for the Technics 1200.
1) Resistance tolerance to be reduced from 20% to 10%
2) Resistance taper improved to be able to calibrate better at the original 2.7k VR302 gain (±10%)
3) Softer center click
4) Longevity to increase up to 15,000 operations.
