solo84 « Very good! »
Published on 11/15/08 at 07:33I use it for 3 years
The construction is good, very compact, it's metal ..
I hesitated with the Frontier Design AlphaTrack, and I chose it for two reasons:
1 / First, a comparison video on YouTube clearly shows that it is much more reactive than the AlphaTrack. Look for the video and watch it, you'll see!
2 / One of the advantages of AlphaTrack is the number of user-assignable buttons, while the latter is supposed to have only one: Well, that at all! In fact 3 / 4 of the buttons are fully assignable in Cubase!
For example, on mine, I only had to make some orders I have assigned at will to enable monitoring, and others to go to the "inserts" on view "EQ" or "send" on the console! The dream!
Use:
Foot! Cubase SX3 it works perfect! fader responds quickly, the buttons light reflect the settings for each track when it is selected.
Another significant thing: being able to use the transport controls (play, stop ....) and solo / mute Although the active window is not that of the DAW. Example: Cubase ever, Kontakt is displayed if the keyboard shortcuts for the DAW are no longer active. It's boring! FaderPort with no pb!
Q / P: 9 (I nabbed at 130 euros)
