Behringer Ableton
Behringer Ableton Posted on: 18.04.2012 by Kymberly Huene Sem Título.jpgWhat do you believe about that? Maybe one X/Y pad is a good idea but behringer don't have any at any other product. 10x10 Lauchpad Effect Rack Controller 4x4 Drum machine + scene mode(like maschine) each channel: -Solo -Mute -REC -CUE -3 knobs -1 fader 4 buttons on master fader top: Shift(for custom mapping) EQ Mode Send Mode Filter/LFO/Pan Mode 3 modes to the 3 knobs of each channel at the right of the controller 4x2 buttons is the same of APC 40 device control 3 buttons on crossfader top, Play, Rec, Stop and the anothers 3 buttons... I don't remember now...lol sorry the bad english any question just ask, maybe behringer see this idea and make this great apc40 challenger. | |

Kymberly Huene 17.04.2012 | To give a size idea... size.jpg is 3,5 behringer modular X 1,5 behringer modular. I don't know the real dimensions because they don't have at behringer site, at NAMM they use 3 modulars together more 0,5 less 0,5... is a big device, but is a really complete one...in my opinion |

Diogo Dj Dragão 17.04.2012 | That controller would be roughly 21" x 18". That's pretty insanely huge. I would much rather handle Ableton Live and Bitwig though modular controllers. That way people can pick the control groups that are important to them. Not everyone uses the software in the same way. And personally, I expect to see a lot of DJs moving away from Ableton in the near future. Most of the new DJ software being developed has very compelling production and performance capability. I believe this trend is going to continue. |
Kymberly Huene 17.04.2012 | you're right, but like I say before this is for live act, and for live act they already know you need space like my teacher, he use: Maschine+APC 40+Ipad+Mixer my idea is to use that at studio, of course at studio APC40 is enough for the job but for live act you need something more... you need the big behringer toy xD |
Chasidy Heckenbach 17.04.2012 | yup - pretty big. ofc the advantage of modular controllers (and why so far i have only bought cheap modular ones) is that u can mix and match to create *your* own ideal setup. controllers like the apc40 or all-on-one dj controllers fix u into what they believe u want. the behinger ones can even attach together using a bottom screwed in plate if u want a more rigid setup. there's also the isssue of available space if playing out in a club ofc - much more likely being able to fit a few small controllers around the existing setup. |

Kymberly Huene 17.04.2012 | Maybe at studio 3 knobs are unreasonable, but for live act? I never see someone using only APC 40, it was always APC40+Maschine+Mixer ou Ipod or another device. 4x4 drum pad unnecessary, then Maschine is unnecessary for DJ too. Scene mode a problem? X-Y is a great idea,to me is the only believe they need to add at this controller, and is not a expensive tecnology but they don't have any controller with X-Y, I design that only with copy paste of the new controllers. Yes the device is a little big...lol but how many guys use APC40+APC20, because they don't have enough clips lauchers. APC 40 is a great device, but is not a complete one, many shift modes can be confuse. |
Brock Ricapito 17.04.2012 | 3 knobs per channel are unreasonable. since they have LED rings around the knobs, they can jump between Pan and Sends with switch buttons on the side of the mixer section, similar to how the Pan/sends are currently done on the APC40. the 4x4 drum pads are totally unnecessary, and "scene mode" would require REALLY intense software modification. and X-Y pad would be a better idea, I believe. This however, seems like it is going to be too big. There is a reason the APC's clip launch matrix isn't bigger than 8x5. 8x8 would already be pushing it with the size, or require uncomfortable reductions in pad size |
