Hi, im getting strange behaviour on Cross and UMCP2 since updating to 2.6

When Im in the mix and move the upfader on one of the channels, i get a moving slider on screen but a fixed one on the same fader.

It disappears if I take my fader past the one thats fixed, then i am able to control the volume again.... It is also doing this for the pitch too.

Is it a setting that I can change so that this doesnt happen? It only does it on the MASTER deck, that ive noticed anyway.

Its hard to explain but hope someone can figure out what Im talking about.

Cheers.

I remember doing a map for you. What you describing is called the MIDI takeover. It is designed for use of the same fader with multiple functions.

Example
If you have a primary function A and a secondary function B +Shift button.

If you move the fader using function A.
Then move fader using function B
Now you want to use it again for fuction A but the physical fader is not in the same position as it was left the last time you used functionA.

Then you see a moving fader that represents the current position as you move it and the static one represents the last position that it was use before changing fuction. When the previous position and the current position are the same value the faders become on and control resumes.

I believe the is a setting near the top right hand in the MIDI section as you resize the window. Check mark for MIDI takeover. otherwise you may have made some changes to your map and that is the cause of the behavior. I will be happy to examine your current map to verify.

Ill look into it, cheers!

I remember that you asked for the volume faders to be link

A and C on the left fader,
B and D on the right fader.

Later on, on feedback that you provided, you mentioned that you de-linked or separated the volume faders.

That would cause the takeover.
If you used the fader for deck A, then used for deck C, and then went back to use it for deck A the takeover would show the "ghost" fader to display the current physical location and the "static" fader to display the last location when it was used until thy are both the same.

It isnt happening on my macbook so its sorted. Was doing it on the Imac, must have been a setting. Ive sold he Imac now so no probs.

Thanks a lot!
