Hi everyone!
I was just wondering if anybody here had problems with their faders? I don’t really know if it’s a software issue, or motor issue, but I’ve already tried hard resetting the unit, updated the firmware and all of that, but to no luck, some of our faders (well technically, I think it’s the master fader) are having problems. They seem to be moving by themselves during actual usage. Some go down to zero, some go up top.
I said it might be the master fader, since it’s usually linked to the layers, but I really have no idea. Thought about having the dealer check it, but unfortunately, we were told that we have to ship it to the service center. Any input would be highly appreciated.

I expect you’ve done this, and it probably will not help, but have you re-callibrated the faders as described in section 11.19 of the “QU-Mixer-Reference-1.9”
absolutely… weird, though, whenever I set the master fader to 5dB, it stays there. gaaah
What firmware - there was a rare-ish bug in 1.5?1.6? where faders would end up moving themselves (at the time stereo pairing was considered a possible risk factor)
Hi,
I have this same issue with my 2YO QU32 running the latest firmware. The fader flipping started from the channels. Its presently flipping up my Master faders during usage. Has anyone here gotten a solution to this issue?
Happy to get this resolved ASAP.

Our QU-32 just had a glitch during streaming where ALL faders went max. The video is archived at media.calvarydallas.org about 54min into 8am worship service. It was loud.
We have the same, it tends to happen when switching to and from Mix of effects layers - the faders don’t all return to the correct place as previously set.
We recently redid with the new firmware / hard reset the whole desk (but did backup scenes).. the issue went away but came back. We did recallibrate the faders too.
We do have some stereo pairing, which was considered a possible risk factor - maybe I should try to remove that and see if it happens more.
From my perspective, it sounds like you’re not having the same problem as the others, because instead of the faders moving on their own, they seem to be restricted in their movement - right?
This points more to typical fader contamination or wear.
I assume everything would be fine again after replacing the affected faders (+ recalibration).
Perhaps it’s also possible to have the faders professionally cleaned.
But under no circumstances should you try to spray any contact spray into the faders from the outside.
