so i've had this great thought hit me this morning.... 4 WAY CROSSFADER!!
figured that if horizontal controls normal x-fade, and vertical controls volume faders (with c and d inverted against a and b), sticking with normal left/right assignments in traktor, you would have single finger control over the balance between all decks.
now the obvious thing to do is use the x/y on my nanopad, but all 4 scenes of that are taken up by effects control and don't fancy putting down a modifier for it (mainly i have no more spare buttons to create a 6th mod, actually there is one...).
but eventually i'd like to rewire an xy in place of the normal x-fade (still considering all the praticalities of this). but assuming this went ahead, can anyone recommend another source of xy joy that could also be wired in place of the x-fade and possibly how this work? (putting aside space issues for now - still in the theory stages)
from a use point of view, as the 'all' option would be in the middle all the decks would be at half volume, so some sort of master volume control on there might correct that... otherwise right now it's not so much a 4 channel x-fade, more 8 in one;
a-b, top line left/right
a-c, far left up/down
c-d, bottom line, left/right
d-b, far right up/down
which still has uses, but not as good
