what controller would you use for LIVE?

hey guys im thinking on buying a new controller i got tired of waiting for the stupid realese of the VESTAX VCM600:rage:

so im looking for a controller to use with ableton live what would you recommend me i was thinking on like on a novation remote sl :wink:

or what would you recommend me ?

ā€œOne ring to rule them all!ā€, yes, from personal experience, I SWEAR on the remote SL :slight_smile: I have the 25.

should i get the remote zero sl or the remote sl 25??

the mpd-32, uc33e and the remote sl 25

id go the SL 25. i dont have one, which makes my advice kinda void… but thats what im getting cos i think its the shit :slight_smile:

I didnt know you were considering to get the VCM-600..i thought you said it was too expensive =P…It does look like a pretty sweet piece of gear tho…I WANT ONE!

Remote 25 SL, fucking owns for live. Only downside is the fact its huge. I have another setup made of multiple controllers, as I can fit them all + my laptop in a backpac.

I was curious what you guys would control with the Remote 25SL…It seems like a nice piece of gear but i think that it has a lack of knobs to EQ with…

Coming from a traktor user, I think a few controllers that seem like they would work with Live is:
Numark MixMeister Control
Livid Ohm

Just my opinion.

For Ableton, I’d say Remote 25SL, UC33e and some drum controller and you’re golden.

Another +1 for the Remote SL-25 :slight_smile:

that remote sl-25 looks nice i just don’t know how i would configure it for my style i am so used to using to decks been trying to figure out how to mix with 4

There’s one thing that rules the rule 'em all controller:

The BCR-2000. :wink:
Also the Evolution UC33e is quite nice.

It all depends, what do you want to do with your controller.
If it is VCM-600 replacement, I would consider the UC33e, and if money permits, opt for extra controls on knobs buttons etc.
(So if there’s a spare BCR, go for it. :wink: )

I’ve read on other forums where they have said that the UC33e malfunctions when smoke from the smoke machines get inside of it…So that may be something worth while to think about it…Me want the VCM-600…just looks so sexy..

Google says that the m-audio forums has a thread about that but damned if i cant find it(thread might have been deleted) - that certainly would make the UC33 a no go if it indeed is true, I am really interested in finding out why that happens but not having luck turning up much information on the subject.

Well it’s a cool controller, but the 649 euros got me thinking. :wink:

is vcm600 out yet? retail price is $800 i heard, not bad considering…

Well, click on the link on sessions post, and you will see that it is already sold on Spanish soil. :wink:
