Pitch

Expand your creative range beyond the standard ±8% pitch control. The MODNICS Pitch Extension Mod gives you three selectable pitch ranges for ultimate flexibility in mixing, sampling, and creative performance. Pitch Ranges Switch between three precision-calibrated modes: Slow: -20% to -8% (extreme slowdown) Default: -8% to +8% (standard Technics range) Fast: +8% to +20% (extended speed range) Unlike newer models (e.g. MK7) that scale the entire range, our mod offsets the pitch range while maintaining the same precision as the standard ±8% setting. This means you get consistent, fine-tuned control across all three modes. What's Included Professional installation in our Berlin workshop Custom-engineered MODNICS PCB with precision quartz crystals Premium wiring with through-hole strain relief 12-month warranty on modification Full functionality testing before return Engineered Quality We design and manufacture our own PCBs specifically for this modification. Unlike generic solutions, our custom boards ensure: Fixed crystal positioning for consistent frequency stability Optimized trace routing to minimize interference Through-hole wire anchoring for superior strain relief Quality control at every production stage Detachable module via JST connectors Each mod is hand-installed by our experienced technicians using automotive-grade wiring and professional soldering techniques. Switch Placement Default: Top of pitch fader (most convenient, doesn't interfere with tonearm) Left side of pitch fader Custom location of your choice As DJs ourselves, we've tested various positions and recommend the top-of-fader placement for optimal workflow. However, we're always open to your specific requirements – just let us know your preference in the order notes. How It Works The Technics direct-drive motor operates at a base frequency generated by a quartz crystal oscillator. By switching between three different crystal frequencies, we offset the entire pitch range without changing the pitch fader's resolution. Traditional ±16% or ±32% mods scale the range, reducing precision. Our approach maintains the same fine control you're used to with ±8%, just shifted to different ranges. Think of it as three separate "windows" of pitch control rather than one stretched-out range. Compatibility This modification works with all Technics SL-1200 and SL-1210 models: SL-1200 MK2 / SL-1210 MK2 SL-1200 MK3 / SL-1210 MK3 SL-1200 MK5 / SL-1210 MK5 SL-1200 M3D / SL-1210 M3D Not compatible with: MK7, M5G, SL-1200GR, SL-1210GR (these models have different motor control systems)

Unlock extended pitch range on your Technics SL-1200/1210 with the Pitchmod DIY Module, designed for users who want the full ±20% modification in a self-installation format.This kit includes the electronic module and hardware required to mount the system into your turntable.⚠️ Important DisclaimerThe Pitchmod DIY installation kit is offered strictly as a do-at-your-own-risk solution. By performing this installation yourself, you acknowledge and accept the following: We do not guarantee perfect results, correct functionality, or long-term reliability if the module is installed outside our workshop. We do not provide technical support for DIY installations. The installation requires drilling and milling aluminium and BMC material (Bulk Molding Compound). BMC contains glass fiber and thermoset plastic, producing highly hazardous dust that remains in the lungs permanently.For optimal performance and full Technics-standard calibration, we strongly recommend professional installation in the Modnics workshop.Package Contents1 × Pitchmod module board with JST connector cable set1 × socket terminal1 × Potentiometer knob (choose your variant above)1 × Installation manualRequired Tools Center punchhex key 1.5/2 mmDrill / step drill (10 mm for metal) Screwdriver/Bit PH2 Soldering iron, solder, desoldering wick and vacuum pumpDiamond / carbide cutting for GFK Class H industrial vacuum cleanerRespirator mask (fine dust)HEPA air purifierSafety goggles

Professional pitch fader replacement service for your Technics SL-1200 or SL-1210 turntable. Our service includes expert removal of the faulty pitch fader, installation of a high-quality replacement part with 50% less tolerance than the original faders, and the calibration of zero point and pitch gain.Service includes:Complete pitch fader replacementGenuine spare part with 10% toleranceProfessional installationFunction test and calibrationLabour and spare part includedNote: This service is ideal for pitch faders showing signs of wear, crackling, intermittent contact, or speed control issues.

Newer Technics 1210 models don't have them anymore. However, the stock MK2s have a center click position.  In the first place this has no technical harm, it is just a matter of style and preference. But a lot of people prefer not having a click in the center to have a smoother transition during beat matching.  If your problem is, that your pitch jumps as soon as you are in the center, the problem is that your pitch needs to be calibrated.
