Designed and engineered by
MIDAS in England
Not satis ed with the existing
motorised fader choices in the
marketplace, MIDAS created the PRO
FADER, rated for up to a million cycles
– three times that of other leading
manufacturers - and providing high
linearity, robustness, and smooth
feel during operation. This decision
yielded many other bene ts,
including total quality control over
the manufacturing process and lower
costs that could be passed on to customers.

As a digital console manufacturer, MIDAS has a perspective on the actual
application of motor faders that a component manufacturer would not
have. The multi-disciplinary development project combined mechanical
design, electronic hardware and software optimisation with a rigorous
testing programme and an investment in material science to produce
the best possible performance in actual operation in MIDAS PRO Series
consoles. Semi-precious metals are used for the wiper ngers for their
hard-wearing properties, and precision resistive tracks were created that
o er highly linear positional accuracy, coupled with long-term durability
and even response in use.

PROFADER(200mm)
Set of 5 High-Endurance,
Touch-Sensitive 100 mm
Motorised Faders (200 mm Cable)
PRO FADER (200 mm) features a high precision 100 mm travel track with a 10 kΩ linear law, ideally suited to servo
control applications. The integrated touch sensing track and conductive T-Bar allow both the implementation of
automatic channel selection in software, as well as detection of when the fader is being held so that the motor is
not driven. PRO FADER (200 mm) is designed to be mounted to console fascia panels via its two M3 threaded pillars
which are on 120 mm mounting centres. A 200 mm long cable is provided which includes connections for the 10 kΩ
resistive track, the touch sensing track and the motor.
PRO FADER (200 mm) is supplied as a set of ve faders and is suitable for use in the input and output fader bays in
all MIDAS PRO Series digital consoles and control centres. PRO FADER (200 mm) is also a replacement for industry
standard parts such as Penny+Giles PGFM3200, Alps K-Fader and other similar 100 mm motorised faders.
