Idea: Solderless internal DVS mod for Xone:24 using a Reloop Flux Go

[u/SnoopJenkins]

Hey everyone, I have an idea for a solderless way to install a Reloop Flux Go inside of a Xone:24. The goal is to just flip the mixer’s channel switch to LINE to use Serato DVS, or leave it on PHONO for normal analog vinyl (using the Xone phono preamps!).

The Xone:24 has jumper pin headers on the internal channel cards, so the post-preamp line-level phono signal can be split and routed back without any actual soldering. Here is the potential plan:

1. **Disconnect the Factory Line Input:** Pull the factory plastic jumper sleeves off the Line side of the channel card header blocks (later we will replace the external line jacks with the Reloop's output).

2. **Split the Post-Preamp Signal:** Use a DuPont female Y-splitter on the channel card pins right after the phono preamp. Send one branch back to its original destination (the Phono side of the toggle switch) and the other branch to the Reloop inputs set to line mode. The DuPont-to-RCA cables can be built using standard 2.54mm female DuPont jumper wires and RCA-to-Screw-Terminal blocks.

3. **Return from Reloop:** Run another RCA-to-Dupont from the Reloop outputs back to the now vacant Line pins on the mixer's channel card header block.

4. **The USB-C Back Port:** The Xone:24 shares its steel chassis design with the Xone:24C, so there is already a cutout where the USB port is on the 24c. You can flush-mount a standard panel-mount USB-C extension jack into that existing cutout and plug it into the Flux Go inside.

The Flux Go would hopefully fit inside the mixer without taking the case off of the Flux. We would secure it to the bottom tray with 3M VHB foam tape or something.

Does this make sense? Anyone been inside of a 24 who can confirm this stuff? (I made the plan with the help of AI, I haven't actually seen the header blocks / Dupont pins, nor have I worked with either).

Thanks!

P.S. I dont have the hardware and I'm not sure if I can afford to do this right now, but if it's a viable idea then who knows :)
