Ableton Forum

You are no nearer to knowing who someone is or the legitimacy of what they post, registered or not. It's a handle from some part of the globe as much as "guest" is.

Grex site is still up claiming these are for sale, no update or explanation why people aren't getting machines. 2000+ reads of this thread of people with problems, bad experiences all over the net. No responses to email enquiries at all as to wtf is going on. No apology or acknowledgment. I am ...

There is a half page news preview in the current sound on sound but even if they start appearing I wouldnt touch this company with a 10ft pole. Not responding to mails and when finally doing so filling it with BS is absolutely unforgivable imo. What happens when you need after sales support even if ...

Thanks 4 the headz up, it's business practices like this that give buying from the web a bad name and make it hard for businesses doing it the right way to gain customer confidence.

I know that the MXF8 actually exists as a former colleague had one in his hands so that a magazine preview could be ...

I'm in on this as well. It looks like it was built to work with Live to me, there's nothing around that does what this does as a controller. The dollar conversion doesn't help the pocket but I prefer to buy stuff that does what I want rather than some bit of plastic that doesn't quite do the job and ...

This is what is making me lean toward definitely getting an MXF8 I think. I had the pleasure of owning a Notron until two years back when I stupidly sold it and have regretted it ever since, a totally unique controller. It allowed me to do so much more than I can with "more sliders and knobs" and ...

Yes, there are many things in Live that need a little bit of streamlining to make it a much more powerful app than it already is. Extending MIDI control to many clip parameters is up there as well.

Another vote.

what is the MFX8? I couldn't find it on Google

I'm trying to find out more myself, it was mentioned a month or so back and the site is up now. http://www.grexultra.com. I looks more functional than most controllers I've used and seen which start to fall apart after a few months reasonable use.

The crossfading of up to 8 channels, beat gate along with punches looks interesting. Wonder what the heck the ratio sequencer does though. Looks built like a tank. The crossfader on the X-Session didn't work for me, no curve and very unlike a DJ fader would work.

Nice sounds for a morning like this looking out of the window. Thanks mosca.

It's one thread now and again, ignore it. This is a great forum imo, people helping each other in the main and enjoying a great product.

Ugh. Leave it to PC zombies to imitate works of creativity, and poorly at that...

Looks like we have a new form of racism and division. Act superior to and dislike a bunch of folk because of what computer they choose to use. They'll be putting a white hooded mask on the Linux penguin before we ...

LOL. Here's the response from none other than forum registered, Mr Helpful, ban gousts who contribute nothing, Alex to a guy yesterday asking for some help/advice with the hard-drive on his laptop.

You're running Windows so you should not be experiencing any problems. Please check with the ...

Yep, they even spend about 80% of the time disagreeing which version of Linux people should use!!

If you want to be a Windows fundie, fine, but don't come here and try to blame Mac users for poor decision making skills.

Erm, and if you want to be a Jobs fundamentalist fine also. I think you'll find that it's you endlessly inferring ad-tedium the converse chum with regard "poor decision making ...
