its not near the pitch slider mate - its a variable pot near the centre of the deck when you take the bottom off.

wouldnt recommend doin this unless your sure - some tunes sound TOO fast when your decks are pitched up.

nah mate, that looks like the underside of the fader...if it's anything like the mkII you need to be looking uner the platter not under the actual deck

Cheers lads, got them speeded up now!!

I was told to take the bottom off them, no wonder i couldnt see the pitch screw lol

I would have been happy with a boost to 10% pitch range as its all i really needed, 16% will do tho

Thanks again for your help!!

So how do you do this on Mk 2's??? Would be nice to have a little more speed occasionally.

Think they will be same as mk3's...

1. Unplug your decks
2. Remove slipmatt & platter, undo the 5 / 6 screws, lift the big plastic cover off & you should be able to see circuit boards etc.
3. Look for a bigger screw marked "PITCH" & turn it fully to the right

Cheers guys. So What actually happens? Does it increase the % range of the slider, or does it simply speed everything up, so that even at 0% it will still be running fast?

Feck me, that's quality! How did I not know about this? LOL

It just double's the pitch from 8% to 16% range
