Hey matti, jeah indeed their is a reason. In my daily work I am an audio engineer for a radio station. Their I worked a lot with faders instead of buttons. So I wanted a live setup with at least 8 faders to fit to my personal workflow. I use the Faders mainly for groups FXs like LowCutting and fitering, and the buttons for single channel FXs. If you are not that much into faders go with the PC12! As you said it got some more control possibilities as the MX12.
@@mattfischery thx for the reply! I mean I could use Potis instead of faders but those extra buttons could really make the difference. Do you know if it is possible to map short press and long press of a button to different functions?
@@mattihol726 Hey, well I am not sure if that is possible..but I dont think so. There are a lot possibilities for editing and routing MIDI but not for different behaviors on time while pushing a knob.
@@mattfischery yeah I think I will just try it. For me it looks tempting to have such a controller and use it for my normal live setup but also mix some tracks once in a while. Biggest unknown is always the software but more buttons definitely help. Really nice unit!
Any specific reason you picked the MX12 over the PC12? Latter has more controls but fewer buttons.. wonder what I should get
