focus fader

World's 1st Contactless Optical Fader invented by Dj Focus circa 1998. Invented for the Hip Hop Scratch DJ it went on to nfluence every aspect of the Dj Scene.
Using light to control the sound of the Dj Mixer it is virtualy wear proof, super smooth and has a super sharp cut-in time for fast clean scratching.

I can't believe I will never have to hear static or bleeding again, this Focus Fader is incredible.

up fader

They're on DJ mixers. Sometimes beginners challenge the point in the cross fader with them.

Beginner: What's the point in the cross fader?
Expert: Look you'll find out by watching videos, and we ALL maximise use of our up fader on each channel.

Fader-outer

One who excitedly agrees to attend a social function; however, the day/night of suddenly has another priority or simply doesn't show.

He was stoked about the party on Monday, but he ended up being a total fader-outer.

michael fader

A type of guy who's such a playa that he doesn't realize it. He's hot AF tho.
Always asks people if anyone has a free going on.
Wears over-sized shoes with lightning bolts on them.
Never follows you back.

Justin is such a Michael Fader, always flexing for his lady and asking if people have frees.
The last thing I want to be is a Michael Fader.
