Thinking of buying a midi fighter... but I have some questions. Posted on: 25.01.2012 by Jennell Egea And the support phone line was busy with a full inbox... so Ill try and articulate my question here.As I understand it the midi fighter mapping software is good and can do most of the things Im going to want to do in ableton. But I want to know something about the superknobs. In all the pictures they are shown default at the 12'oclock position. Does this mean that they click into place for a zero'ed out perameter... or is that just for press photos. It seems silly but I need to know. Im looking at getting a cue master to replace my, currently missing, APC 40. (Crazy weekend in LA... dont ask.) I almost want to replicate the djm 800 filter in a way that I can go from lopass, to off, to high pass filter for the 2 routed channels Im working with. ...So yea... | |

| Adolf Hit 26.01.2012 | Officially the MF pros ship without Detents now (originally they did), but yeah if you ask we can use detents when building your unit |
| Jennell Egea 26.01.2012 | Thanks , I did manage to get an email back and they did tell me they can put detents in. |
| Ethel Saracco 25.01.2012 | I have the Cue Master. In the 12'oclock position there is a small detent that allows them to be easily centred. It's more of a positioning guide than a click into place. So it's easy to sweep past this point if you want to. These knobs also send out different midi messages depending on their position. In Traktor I have one knob mapped as a Filter with off in the 12'oclock position. The second knob I have mapped to some complex FX with off in the far left (7'oclock position). Hope that helps. |
| Jennell Egea 25.01.2012 | I know it seems like a dumb question... but I could really use the answer. |
