Ok.
But a single master isolator sounds, to a moron like me, pointless compared to 1 per channel.
Hope that makes sense??
Are the new(ish) A&H mixers worth it?

I’d happily kick the wife out and move one in.
Mad_Cyril …yeah, the master ISO isn’t really for mixing per-se, more for messing with track frequencies over a big system… you’ll see the likes of Claussell, Krivit etc. wanking themselves daft with them, which personally I think sounds shit, but horses for courses, used more sparingly they can be quite effective.
The HPF on the Radius is basically a super-smooth subtractive filter… removes the frequencies from low>high as you turn it up…. it’s really all you need for mixing house/techno and is why lots of folks with Xone 92/96’s and Rane MP2015’s scarcely touch the EQ.
NasserAlazzawi …the valve will sound incredible, but I wish they’d just do a valve Radius, you really don’t need EQ’s/Xfader on a mixer of that type (but then I guess they’d have effectively re-made the A&H V6, which they might be reluctant to do).

So basically something like a cross fader?
Would this simplify things for a nugget like me?
Just been watching Morales ‘big up’ rotaries on Twitch. Test driving a new ARS on his red zone show
Mad_Cyril …not really like a crossfader, no.
Imagine one knob had the functionality of a 3 or 4-band EQ. The first third of a turn removes the bass end of the frequencies, the second bit the mids, the last bit sweeps-up the highs. I guess the main difference between it and an EQ is that it is just subtractive, ie. you can’t use it to boost frequencies, just take them away… then again, I don’t know many DJ’s that push frequencies on a mixer using the EQ in that way, I certainly don’t.

Been watching a lot of Mastersounds videos.
Found that they have an office about 10 - 15 miles away.
Called them up and arranging a demo.
I’m hoping @Unbroken1 s description of the single knob as for all EQ’s will simplify things for me
…one knob to rule them all!
…would love to go to the showroom, if only to have a listen to that Clarity system
Talking of knobs. Where can I get different coloured input ones for my xone mixer.

U mean a like rotatary kill? Or a right/ left drag across an assigned point on an EQ8 in ableton with a knob mapped onto the reference point. E.g. Left drag on the 8 on an EQ set up like this would give you progressive kill of the high to low freqencies, which you could map to a knob?
…more or less, yeah
, how are you fixed next weekend?- Edited
I’d also be up for an unbroken masterclass but wouldn’t want to crash a custom lesson for @Mad_Cyril in how to pitch encore une fois down to 60 bpm. 
No low-hanging fruit tag? I’m getting sick and tired of this simple oversight.
Can we get a new tab in the spreadsheet please?
Along_the_Wire care to explain?
Mad_Cyril A thread about the release of a new mixer has to be low-hanging fruit status, doesn’t it?
