APC 40 Question: Volume Faders as Cross Faders

[grazz16]

hey guys,

I had a thought the other day in regards to the volume faders/ cross fader: is it possible to get the same effects you get in Live on the cross fader, like "dipped, intermediate, slow fade, constant power" etc. but apply them to the volume faders?

Would seem to me that this would be a good idea no?

[S4racen]

Good idea yes, but not possible currently without max4live...

I made a device that was for sm4rt control of a rack which you could easily modify to be a gain stage that had it's own custom drawn curve graph...

Cheers

another question regarding the APC 40, I want to get into DJ'ing and am looking for a decent controller that allows me to do everything i need. So is the APC a good choice? Price seems pretty good for that many functions but can i actually mix tracks into each other with it?

As in control the EQs of both tracks and then use the volume and crossfader to blend them into each other and add some effect on top of that? Would be playing EDM music so i dont think i'll need jogwheels if you have other suggestions....

[grazz16]

yes, yes you can

it doesnt come set up that way but you can very easily map EQ controls for it as everyone who has one has done
