i haven't seen much posts about this,so i decided to open a topic for my problem,sorry if you had this already,i'm quite new here...
how many users are there at all using evolution x session with live?i noticed more people using uc 33...but setting them up should be similar...
anyway,here's my issue with it...i can't figure out how to multiply the functions of knobs and buttons...as i wasn't very happy with the default preset that came with the x session,i used the standard midi assignment in live (which is by the way,very easy to perform) assigning almost everything i could very soon,but it ended up to be enough only for one deck...
the question is:how can i achieve to have same knob and button functions for at least 4 decks (that's how much i use)?is there an ''shift''/''ctrl'' option to jump from one deck to another?for example:how can i make work the upper 8 knobs to control some of the the live's effects for all decks?
tnx

You can program up to 10 presets into the X-Session (each of which uses all 16 knobs and all 10 buttons) and then switch between them using "Recall", effectively giving you up to 160 knobs and 100 buttons (and 10 cross faders!)

It's probably easiest if you use Enigma (a free download from Evoulution's web site).

Hope that helps.
