    Soft Takeover is supposed to disable the MIDI commands of the assigned controller until it matches the software. So, for example, you have the Bass on Deck A at 50% and on Deck C at 30%. You switch from Deck A to Deck C. The Bass on Deck C should not move until the knob reaches 30%.
    It's the FAQ. Read it.

    Thanks..I will try this again tonight, but somewhere I think I read this feature does not work well with modifiers.

    I use soft take over on my gain so I don't crazy volume jumps. Works wonders.

    I dunno, I just tried it again..using modifiers. I had decks on A/B at 100%, then switch to decks C/D (modifier 7) and touch the volumes levels for c/d and they jump to 100% like in A/B..I have |soft take over" enabled.???weird.

    I'm not really a fan of this controller. It just feels all over the place right now.

    Personally, if you don't have a MIDI controller I'd rather get a VCI-100 instead of this. Perhaps as a secondary controller, but that all depends on what your primary one is.

    I just tried "soft take over" in Traktor 3.4 and it works..and is nice.
    I think Traktor Pro..another not working feature..simply will not work.

    Thats weird, because i just tested it today and it worked fine on a pair of gain knobs.

    What version are you on Windows/Mac 1.01/1.02?
    I tried in 1.01 T Pro and nothing works.(I am using modifiers too)
    I tried with T 3.4 and works like you describe.
    I went to NI forums and searched and seems a problem and will be fixed for 1.03.
    So how is yours working and not mine??
    Are you using a VCI-100?
    ..weird.
