Your SK FIVE comes with a special PROTEKT™ aluminum panel designed to
make the surface of the mixer is as smooth as possible while still enabling you
to field-replace key components. The PROTEKT™ panel covers all screws that
may get in the way of your performance. You can still easily remove the front
panel to replace any of the modular parts which are subject to wear and tear:
crossfader, input faders and input toggle switches.
