How to pry apart an audio mixer fader which is noisy, crackling or cutting out. In this video I open end clean the fader of a Tascam 244, a vintage analogue multitrack cassette recorder, but the same principles would apply with other manufacturers of fourtrack recorder such as Fostex or Yamaha, or with faders for mixers made by any number of manufaturers. Depending on the design of the unit you are working on, it might be necessary to desolder the component first, but due to the design of this generation of Portastudio, it is possible to remove the rear plate without soldering.
