HOLD YOUR HORSES JOHN!
Look What l found. Its a blessing cause l couldn't find anything relative to the Alphatrack single fader. Mines is old and Frontier never made a never model.
No one knew about the X Touch One, one guy who has the Faderport V2 told me to get the Nektar, l was like eeewww hell mah. I found the Faderport v2 doesn't work most functions in Readon and l just don't mix in S1v3 like that.
So l went into Youtube and put in Faderport and the Behringer X Touch pops up and this is 9 tracks. I was like dam thats hot. But l don't need nor want 9 tracks. So l kept digging and found x touch one. One stands for singular fader.
I saw it and was blown away by the aesthetics of it. But l went deeper and found this is actually a perfect answer to my Alphatrack.
Faderport v2 is great for S1v3 no doubt and a few others but not Reason 10.1
It doesn't have a scribble strip with read out with tracke etc. I can't see parameters like l saw on the Alphatrack. Pan button has no read out you gotta look at the screen. Touch One has all this and more.
Tge XT1 even has a scrub knob which is huge that l love cause l like to scrub back and forth in a session.
Here's hhe bottom line, XT1 is bigger looks good, nice build also. Then it comes with overlay templates that you can place on the XT1. That's hot. It doesn't have a template for Reason but it still works with Reason. Guess what it has a template for Studio One and works with precisely. So if l ever wanted to mix in S1 l could.
Drum roll for the price drrrrrrruummmmmmmm boom!
XT1 $149. Faderport v2 is $199
I just bought the XT1 brand new off ebay for $135 l made an offer he bit and it will be here Thursday! Now that was a blessing!
