Mixer requirements
Turntablists have the following requirements in a mixer circuit:
- Small off-to-on travel distance - the appropriate channel should be fully muted when the fader is in the zero position, and bring the channel to full volume within the first few millimetres of wiper travel.
- Decay time - when the fader is moved, the appropriate channel should change volume at a rate quickly enough to allow rhythmic cutting, but slowly enough to eliminate any clicks and pops which would be caused by an instantaneous decay
