im not joking! about pickup mode what is the point to use it if you have endless pots that gets updated automatically? (im i losing something here?)sacredgeometry wrote:you are joking right? secondly pickup would have to be used regardless of pots or faders so your 2nd point is a little irrelivant.IP wrote:Question for Jesse: Any chance for a "rotary" version in the future? 8 endless encoders instead of 8 faders
if no..
Request: A "rotary" version of APC40. (8 endless encoders instead of 8 faders)
a. many people prefer rotary versions against faders, from the old classic mixer days
b. even more people hate hate hate (i mean really hate) the pickup mode!

No, I understand well using pots, but endless encoders are, imo, a bit dangerous when dealing with volume. They would also mean that you would be further tethered to the screen. That is all.IP wrote:sacredgeometry wrote: Because there is not only fader philosophy out there.
some people work with and prefer rotaries for years now.
As or "endless" i cant find anything against them.
Great for devices with many banks.
You dont losing values by going up/down in order to find the "pickup point" as it updates automatically every time you switch to an other bank.
Or to explain even batter ... think about the APC 16 pots with simple pots against endless encoders!

I agree! Selling limited versions of the software is really annoying. Just send us a coupon with it.jonjonfunkphenomenon wrote:i so want to fork out the cash (GC CC) to get 8....wish they had a coupon for buy one get 100 off ableton full deal.
Upgrading from the software provided is much cheaper than buying 8 outright...what more do you want?tweekskratch wrote:I agree! Selling limited versions of the software is really annoying.
