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

      …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?

        Unbroken1 Apologies, just realised I’m 3 months late to the party. Love the April Mix btw!

        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?

          The dude on the phone said Monday to Friday, frees up the weekend for masterclasses!!!

          Borderline I’d say, but not quite ’what’s your favourite <insert compilation series*> though!!
