I don’t think it’s necessarily the best choice as a controller, but you could use anything on it that sends out midi values to write automation, change a parameter on a plugin, etc. So you should be able to use endless rotary encoders for some basic tasks. When you use midi learn to link to your hardware, iirc, in the setup panel you have the choice of adjusting values relative or absolute. Yes, I posted the link above about how to do it. I was just wondering if any midi wizards had experience with this (or any other) controller with endless enconders and Logic. If the same were applicable to any assigned parameter, in theory I could change between different faders or pans without forcing them to jump. It’s just that with the soft synths it doesn’t necessarily retain the information but by being a continuous rotary knob (endless, meaning that the pot doesn’t physically stop rotating) when you start changing the value of the assigned parameter the level doesn’t jump, but continues from the value that was previously dialled in in the software. But you seem dead set on it, so go for it and enjoy it, until you realize you cannot do what you want to do with it.Ok. The MInilab mkII is a decent little MIDI keyboard, but to get it to control fades and pan and other settings is going backwards. So how does that make it remember the fader and pan settings? I'm pretty sure it wouldn't really affect automation as long as the encoders are endless rotary ones no ? That said, I think the Minilab doesn't have leds so I would have to take the visual cue from the computer screen.which is kind of what I wanted to avoid doing in getting a mixer.but, like I say, I´d like a controller that can do both keys and perform some mixing tasks.

I would have thought that the x-touch mini would also retain this info which rather that affecting motorised faders would modify the LED levels on the rotary knobs. I think the BCF2000 even retains pan and eq info which, in this case controls the motorised faders. I thought the knobs on the x-touch might remember the settings as it does on the compact and x-touch normal. If it has a LED screen, as you think it does, it still doesn't have Faders to remember past settings. Your MINIlab is a simple MIDI controller, so it doesnt have motorized faderts. They are not motorized faders and they will not remember any settings in your DAW. LED level monitors just monitor the levels in LED.
