I thought its more live's fault? can you run live, unplug and replug the USB cable of your controller and continue remote controll live on the fly?

They are relevant if you use the channel faders for Track 7-12 via the TrackBank function.
The faders aren't motorized. So when you push the TrackBank button to switch between Tracks 1-6 and 7-12 the orange LEDs (above and beneath the green LED) indicate if you have to move the fader up or down to go to the value/position of the fader like it was before you switched the bank.

Uhh, I hope you get it. You sound like like you own a VCM-600. If so then you could also take a look into your manual at page 24, point 17) Mode Select Switch !!

[edit] In other words, just move the fader of e.g. Track 1 and afterwards push the TrackBank button (upper right on the VCM). Then you'll see that one orange LED is lit.

So I was walking by a local shop and there it was in the window. And I could buy it for $1050. Is it just me or is that a little high? I can buy two second mackie controllers in my city for that much cash.

That is stupidly expensive.

That is what I was expecting. That is still pricy but if it is built well I can understand it.

More than twice the APC?! Get real.

This may interest you guys - I just did a video review..

Great review!

I like it better now; will have to wait for the price to drop though.

So, does this thing come with a template or doesn't anyone out there has a good template they can share?

The site says it comes with a custom version of Live. So, I am guessing there is some kind of template or templates available.

Probably.

But why would you want someone else telling you how to use it?

Starting from scratch means,

1. You learn more about the equipment you use
2. You start thinking, if I could program it however I want, what would I want it to do?

I dont have a use for a pan, nor a 'middle' or kills for that matter, so why would I waste controls on them? I am having a custom blank faceplate made up for me, so I can label it how I want.

Its just a midi controller, after all. It can do what ever you want...
