Abstract
The apparatus is a cross fader with a slide assembly which slidingly traverses a path defined by two parallel guide rods which pass through a partially open channels in the slider of the slide assembly. Tension plates are secured by self-tapping screws within recesses laterally adjacent to open portions of at least one of the channels. The tension plates are urged radially against the guide plates, so that the tighter the screws are secured, the tighter the tension plates are urged against the guide rods and the more frictional resistance is generated when the user moves the slider.
