X touch one cubase1/22/2024 Of all the things I listed, the most important thing you should consider is placement and the ability to view the LCDs. So, I replaced the Behringer with the Mackie and have been very happy with the latter. It also has a perpendicular display for the LCDs, and the price wasn’t an issue for me. However, the Mackie is metal and built like a tank. $600 for the X-Touch versus $1200 for a Mackie MCU. It’s a plastic unit, the faders and jog wheel feel cheap, and that’s all understandable. Plus, a pretty clumsy setup having to prop up with a towel.Īnother thing that bugged me was the build quality. LCDs were readable at that point but still not optimal. I eventually stuck a rolled up towel underneath the back to tilt it at about a 30 degree angle. Trying to view them from an angle, like you would meters on a mixer, was almost unreadable. The X-Touch LCDs are flush mounted with the unit, so it’s really designed to sit on an office desk where you look down at it. One of the biggest problems for me was the angle of the LCDs. Eventually a few folks helped me out and I got things working. There’s a user forum but even that is sparsely populated. There are some video tutorials that are very well done, but they all focus on Logic users and there’s none for Cubase. There were some initial frustrations trying to figure out how to do particular things on the X-Touch because there is absolutely zero customer support from Behringer. The things that bothered me may or may not be important to you. However, I ultimately sold it and bought an actual Mackie MCU. I had an X-Touch in the Cubase 9.x days, and it worked fine with Cubase. And everything is controlled by the patch. Now I have 2 10inch monitors over each Xtouch and the monitors show the levels and also the scribble strips text which is WAY better to read than the poor XTouch display. That patch on the video has grown QUITE A BIT over the time. I’ve “fixed” the autobank thing indeed (among other things) but it has some limitations/bugs and that’s why I didn’t released it but it works pretty well most of the time. But I love all kinds of nerdy/progamming/geek stuff and it was the only solution I came out and I have no idea how to “pack things” to make it simpler. Of course, it needs to be a total solution so when someone re-installs Cubase or changes their DAW Mackie Control Protocol controller…they can also re-install the solution that makes this work.įor myself at least…what amount would I pay a developer so I could click on Cubase channel 64…and my QconPro would autobank to channel 64…instead of me pressing the bank button 8 times? It would bring back a lot of functionality.Įhehe… I know it’s too nerdy to make it work. You could probably sell this solution if you could somehow package it all together so the end-user just makes a few clicks. The thing is…your solution is just bloody complicated for a simple musician guy like me. You even said that you had “fixed” the issue that plagues most Mackie Control protocol users of no auto-banking. Hello! I have been referring lots of forum posts to your video ever since you initially wrote that solution in VI control. I made some customization using cubase + MaxMSP (or Puredata) to enhance the experience using X-Touch + Cubase.
