Tópico: Cross fader problem

Este tópico es antiguo y puede contener información incorrecta para la nueva versión.

hi there
recently my crossfader became stuck just of centre and when i try to drag it to the left or right it automatically jumps back to teh centre. this makes mixing impossible. Has anyone else had this problem?
i reinstalled win XP on my PIII and installed the lastest drivers for my SB Live
the software has worked on my pc for almost a year now and i cannot understand whats going
thanx

the cross afder actually sits just of centre and seems to be trying to jump to the absolute centre the whole time as it is continuously moving from about a millimetre to the left to right (shivering)
 

you tried reinstalling it?
 

many many times
 

with which click you moove fader?
 

well DJ Coco at support suggested i unplug my joystick and atomix is working again
far out
 

yes you can use a joystick to control the crossfader
 

Cool!

That shivering motion really implies there are two conflicting devices (joystick struggling to center it, mouse struggling towards the wanted position) so it seems logical now that you know the solution :)
Kinda like when I experimented with USB-mouse + PS/2-mouse, the cursor was affected by both at once: one up, one down = cursor stands still :)
 

Btw.. I might as well say the word that will send DIY-people to the electronics-store: potentiometer! :)

A slide-potentionmeter, a knob, some lenght of (speaker)wire and a joystickport-connector is all you need for a homemade crossfader.. not sure if it's worth the money though since a 1-axis "joystick"/slider isn't that useful in other purposes :)
