Reply to APC40 Level Meter Mapping (WITH FLASHY LIGHTS)

this is what I did today

still experimenting with the idea of fully mapping my APC40 for use in Traktor, mainly because of the LED feedback from both the pads and the pots, although I might just buy an S4 or something in the future, who knows.

anyways, I was experimenting with using the pads as a HUMUNGOUS levels meter (in Traktor of course), mainly to make sure Im not clipping or getting auto-limited, and from a distance you can't really read that tiny master levels bar at the top of the screen, especially if there's only tiny orange bits every every drum hit for a microsecond, and when you've been drinking its even harder.. I'm believeing having a MEGA FLASHING RED LIGHT will catch my attention.

I quite like the way the lights flash with the music too, maybe I like flashing things too much, who knows...
