Subject:Re: 9 draw module
Hi,
I use much the same kind of controller for the drawbuttons' LEDS on
the Electro. It has the same number of faders ( 16 ) but it's a lot
smaller than the Peavey. You have to program it with a little PC
editor but it's a very easy to use, and much cheaper too. You then
have to lern to push instead of pull to bring up the drawbar volume.
Check out the Doepfer Pocket Fader on www.doepfer.de
There's also another controller from Evolution which gives the option
of push faders or, at the flick of a switch (or two), pull drawbars
especially for the likes of B-4 users, and separate rotaries for
other functions.
Regards, Thomas.
