sorry if i'm in the wrong place
been using Cross for about 1 mounth and here are my first impressions of the soft
-sound wise the soft is solid and franckly it has nothig to envy from others; bas is deep and clean at any level, mid and highs tough sound a bit canny but at 0 db they are clean
-the layout is great and clear. up to now it is quite user friendly and i was able to spin right out of the box
-the wave form layout (upper section) suites quite my needs and is the prime reason i've invested in Cross, It Makes beat matching a breeze when the boot noise is at it's peak..... LOUD MOUTHS keep it down
-my vci 100 reacts the way it should with Cross. the native support if fine, but i would LOVE to map it on my own. As i understand this feature will be available in the near future. Bring it on
-is there a way to kill the frequency's while using my vci
-is there a way to have the beat locators in the upper wave form
-what is the difference between hybrid, tempo and speed
-is there a way to sync to beat and not to phase or to sync truly in phase (phrase)
-can i smart seek with my controller
- now for the little things that piss me off lol
- i wish i could NOT work with i tunes
my playlist should be managed strickly within Cross and also all the tags should be within it: bpm, comments gendre and so on
-also have a look at the way to create and mange collections: when i go thru the manage collection prompt and i recall a new existing one most of the time Cross crashes. Obviously if i was playing, all the time the same gendre of music that would not be an issue but with the amount of tracks i own it is quite difficulte to search the various fields ie bpm , keys....
-i would like to sort by multi collums ie: bpm and key btw my key are stored in the comment field
-The beat detection is good but for only 70% of my tracks. IE:
In my library i have 16000 tracks, itook mix vibes almost 3 days to analize them. i had over 4700 tracks with wrong or even NO bpm's WTF, beat tap for so many tracks is a killer
When i analyze tracks i prompt peak and bpm, is that the way to go
- also please give us the option to make fonts bigger my eyesight is crashing
These are my findings for now, and i surely will come up with some more in time, but as i stated before i love Cross and the fun is back in mixing for me.
Thanks to all for your time and may the music be you
