In this video, we take a closer look at the Mag Three, how they work, how to adjust them, disassemble them, etc.  

We’ll cover each of the adjustments you can do, both using the mixer settings, and internal to the mixer, including how to adjust the cut in, contour, and tension.


We’ll also disassemble the fader, so you can see how it goes together and works.  This might be helpful to you if you ever need to troubleshoot, lubricate,  replace your fader, replace any of its parts like the carrier, or if you’re just curious about what it looks like under the hood.
