Pioneer DJM-900 Nexus Tutorial - How to Remove P-Lock Fader Caps

In this video I show you how to remove those really innovative, yet pesky, P-Lock fader caps on the Pioneer DJM900Nexus.
Oreos.

[@edinatl2008]

Tried showing this video to the guys at Norman's Electronics, my local authorized Pioneer shop here in Atlanta, only to be refuted and told 'it's just as good to pull straight up' despite the locking mechanism. Be careful if you ever have to get your mixer serviced. They also forgot to put back a couple screws around the mic. Thanks for having this video up so I can (try to) explain this to people.

How about the volume fader caps. Do they have the same system? I’m trying to skin my pioneers. The DDj 1000 srt amd the xdj xz but don’t want to force anything.

[@JustAnotherThisDJ]

Absolute lifesaver. What a carry on i almost destroyed mine trying to get it back on. Watched this and boom back on in a crack after 60 minutes of scratching my head. That little plastic thing was doing my box in. almost killed it with plastic fatigue. Thanks a lot man.

[@QRS365]

Sheeeeeet. I wish I came across this video before I broke mine. Thanks for this video bro

[@fmrlproductions9282]

where can you get these fader caps? im having a hard time finding a replacement :(

[@LorneAshley]

did my man drop a 1 frame Oreo flash when the fader cap came off? or was that just me?

[@yuzukazedesign]

Can you use the same faders for the Pioneer xdj-rx3?

[@toxicburn1]

Not all heroes wear capes!

[@guusblauw]

The whole piece came out including the metal part, what to do haha

[@Chris.n.a]

Thanks!

[@Seeks__]

Thanks, now I can solder on different colored LEDs :)

[@kacywilson]

Good video but easy to mis that center screw in the faceplate and get stuck for a bit...just swapped my crossfader succesfully

[@Djtonydraper]

Wow. Great video. I'm actually looking to add the rotary knob kit to my DJM 900 SRT & this is the only video that came up with any type of info on it. Thanks for sharing as cap removal is so very important. I just wish I could find the video I'm really looking for. Any help with this would be much appreciated. Thanks Christian.

[@easyrouge]

Mine just won’t come off using this method, I have an 800 …any ideas?

[@christianjackson]

Absolutely! I'll do that one next.

[@oldstyleanalog6459]

Thank u

[@kriskoz1]

...nice try, but I will never eat, you know the product from the 'hidden'also called '25' frame :)

[@DjPatC]

Is that the same with the volume sliders..?

[@TSC-Detroit]

Thank you

[@darive9600]

Can you make a video about how to hook up your CDJ's in digital with the DJM-900 Nexus? I seen you use it in "Life In Color Preview Mix - 4 CDJ2000 (Electro House)" Mix. Thanks! Great Tutorial's! very helpful!

[@SherwinBajao]

Thanks

[@stancenz2095]

Oreos

[@Wild_D]

This is one of the best how to vids ever. Clear, to the point, and a snack analogy everyone can relate to

[@djantiwar]

Hahaha you make it look easy !! On My mixer thiss was a hell of a job .

[@FBA_AllTHEWAY]

Pretty neat.. now where can faders be bought for controllers and mixers?

[@LateNightGhost]

Can anyone help me with this? I'm trying to get my faders off on my Pioneer DJM450, to put a skin on it. I've followed this video, and got the white bit out of the faders, but they still don't want to come off. I've pulled, shimmyed a knife under it, and it just doesn't want to move, even though I think I've taken the 'lock' off... Am I missing something?

[@nathalieofficial237]

Same here. Still no chance of getting the cap off after removing the white clip. Any solutions yet?

[@SteveF69]

thank you!

[@Aesop101]

Is there a way to tighten the tension of channel faders

[@KontioLinum]

Thanks. It's very helpfull.

[@moagnor]

This also applies to the channel faders? Is it the same which side of the white you push on?

[@leekim6117]

The metal piece is bent, and I'm not quite sure is it should be like that but I was wondering how I could fix it? Please help me!?

[@onevideochannel6122]

Надеюсь google переводчик правильно переведёт. Попробуй плоскогубцы (пассатижи), возможно с их помощь тебе удастся выправить штекер фейдера

[@sparky-sr7uu]

wonder why Pioneer did this stupid trick?

[@christianjackson]

On previous mixers, DJs complained that the faders flying off after time or heavy use. So this prevents that from happening without needing special tools or disassembling the mixer to replace them

[@sparky-sr7uu]

thanks for the heads up-to be honest a drop of evo stick stopped the problem in the past :)@@christianjackson

[@naughtalistv]

lol oreo

[@josesolis9842]

Thanks!

[@sjorsvb]

I was able to repair my controller using this, thanks a lot!
