Essential Information About the Rackable Union Audio eq.xfader Module
- Extension Dedicated to the Orbit.6: 6-channel architecture designed to naturally integrate into the mixing flow of the Orbit.6 analog rotary mixer.
- Innofader Crossfader: precise touch, great smoothness, and reliability for controlled transitions both in clubs and mobile performances.
- Dual 4-Band Isolator: fine spectrum shaping for rises, cuts, and ultra-musical creative transitions.
- Mix/Cut: instantly adjust the crossfader curve, from smooth fades to sharp cuts for the most percussive styles.
A Premium Extension Designed to Take the Orbit.6 Further
The Union Audio eq.xfader was designed as an innovative rackable module to expand the possibilities of the Orbit.6 analog rotary mixer. The idea is simple: preserve the high-end rotary philosophy and add modern performance control, with a reference crossfader and isolators capable of transforming the dynamics of a set with just a few gestures.
Designed by Andy Rigby-Jones and handmade in Cornwall (United Kingdom), this module focuses on a handcrafted and demanding approach: premium materials, selected audio components, and robust construction to support intensive use, night after night.
For Which DJs and Uses?
The eq.xfader is aimed at demanding DJs, analog mixing enthusiasts, and professionals who want to add a true performance crossfader to a setup centered around the Orbit.6. It suits both fans of long, silky transitions (house, disco, deep, afro) and styles requiring sharp, rhythmic cuts (hip-hop, breaks, drum and bass).
In clubs, it provides an immediate creative lever to play with energy, frequency cuts, and dynamic changes. In studio or fixed installations, it becomes a very clean routing and processing tool, notably thanks to insert options for integrating external processors.
