I bought a PreSonus FaderPort 16 for my Logic and I’m very happy with it.

This is a great walk through. Thanks! I've had a FaderPort 8 for a few months now. I use it with Logic Pro X, and like Ableton, there are a few quirks, but nothing too serious. I do love having physical faders to work with. I now tend to work more with my ears, than always looking at the screen, which is a big plus.

Your videos are super clear, easy to follow, and straight to the point. I also appreciate the content section sidebar on the left. Thank you!

I love how in depth and well explained your reviews are... From experience, I totally agree with how useful this is coming from a purely soft synth background, the feel of hardware controllers brings a whole new level of expression to performance both live and in the studio !

If I ever havwe a question about my faderport 8, after all these years, I come to this video… thank you!

I've been looking for a 16 channel h/w controller forever never seeming to land on one that's perfect (yes I know the 16 wasn't out when you did this vid). But it's nice to see someone reviewing the Faderport with Ableton. Super helpful. Thanks loopop!

Faderport 16 came out 6 years ago

I see this as a valuable companion to the Push 2. I love the deep integration of Push but I don't like mixing with it. I would probably never use the Faderport's plugin manipulation, but that doesn't make it less valuable to me. There's something about faders that map almost unconsciously to levels for me, so that I mix with my ears instead of my eyes. Mixing on Push, on the other hand, is very much a visual experience for me.

Got the single faderport V2 and as a drummer this thing is a huge relief especially using a foot pedal to start/stop.That alone is why I got the thing.Editing is a lot more enjoyable without having to mouse over everything all the time.I could go on but as a helpful note I keep the faderport to the left of the PC and mouse on the right for two hand usage.🤖🛸

Thank you for this detailed review. Most of times, I only use it to write volume automation in StudioOne4. SO4 more like regular song arranger and mixer, Live more like real time acting and performming, so FP8 seems more powerful in live after watch your review. However, I think 8 faders are a little bit short of faders for large mixing, once your project end up with 7~80 tracks or more(drum may fill up 10 tracks or more). FP16 will be a real arsenal despite price and it can be finally placed in front of keyboard(Now I'm placing FP8 behind my keyboard, have to reach out my arm everytime I touch the faders).

Does the single fader version of this work as of 2023? Or does it still have the 8 track banking issue? I'm planning on buying it and using it with ableton. Any info would be great!

Just starting to look into motorized fader controllers and came across this one. Thanks for this! Curious if you had heard about the Icon Pro Audio Platform M+. I was only able to find one comparison video for using them in Logic, but I would imagine similar results with MCU. Lights on the Icon seem to be a bit more annoying.

Is there a controller you'd recommend over FaderPort specifically for Ableton?

Great video, thank you... this might be a silly question, but what is the maximum amount of tracks you can control? I saw you flicking through them with the knob but is it possible to go through them like pages, e.g. Track 1-8, then onto to Track 9-16, then Track 17-24 etc. ? you showed something at around 3:35, but I didn't notice if it actually loaded up the next 8 tracks in your project once you passed track 8 so you have the next group of tracks (9-16) displayed on the mixer.

Yes, is absolutely possible. You just have to press the "bank" button and then move the encoder. If you are in "channel" mode, channels will move one by one, and if you are on "bank" mode, then the encoder will move through pages of 8 channels, as you call it.

Hi, loopop!!! I need your help!! I work in Studio One 5 and the NI Kontakt sampler with orchestral libraries from Spitfire, Cinematic Studio and VST synthesizers of orchestral instruments from SWAM. To work, I need to control the parameters of dynamic automation (Volume, Expression, Vibrato, etc.) during the live (performance) of a musical part. I am considering buying a Presonus Faderport 8, because it is equipped with motorized faders. This is what is required in my work. I didn't find an answer to my question on the forum of the Presonus website. Please help me. For convenience, I will state my questions on the points: 1. Is it possible to link Presonus Classic faders (Faderport 8) to the volume, expression, vibrato parameters in each NI Kontakt orchestral library, so that they are constantly stored in memory for constant use? 2. I will be glad if item 1 is possible! You could have suggested how to configure this in Studio One:) 3. If points 1 and 2 are possible, will the Faderport 8 motorized feeders automatically connect to the already recorded dynamic automation settings? Thank you in advance! I really hope for your help!!!

Quick query: if I have 8 closed groups, will the faders be assigned to these groups or will it be assigned to all the channels within? I tend to do sub mixes within groups, using them like a BUS and will then mix these. Does it allocate groups to faders in his way? Thanks

I've always wondered what happens if you touch a fader when it's moving due to being automated. Does it mess up / overwrite the automation so you have to do it again? Does it allow you to edit the automation? How can you use it or is it just nice to watch?

Good video. Still, my biggest problem is latency, when you use heavy plugins latency can reach 1 second, good luck automating volume at all then, you get 1 second delay in fader response..

The smart fabric that Keith Mcmillen uses also effectively works as a motorized fader, minus the moving parts, weight, cost, high current draw, etc.. They're not perfect (hard to see position in bright light, perhaps a bit less accurate), but would pick them over motorized faders in most cases. Of course, none of their offerings are very similar to this thing, but to answer the question "do moterized faders make DAWs better?", I'd say that the smart fabric (or some other touch strip) is generally preferable.

I'm late to this but, Ableton doesn't natively show timecode in it's transport. Does the SHIFT + TIMECODE function display it in SMPTE Timecode Format?

What other fader controllers would be good to pair with Push

Just one thing makes motorized faders better than without. Imagine that you load a mix your working on. With NO motors then if your faders is NOT at the same position as in the mix then you be screwed because you easy end up with all faders in your mix in wrong positions and have to rebuild this mix. So when you HAVE motorized faders and you load a mix then the faders simply just move to correct positions as in the mix. Another nice feature is that if you do fading of some channels in realtime then the recorded fader positions will automatic play back as in the mix ( on the screen ) So conclusion is , If you first ONE time try motorized faders then you will NEVER go back.

Is it possible to arm many tracks at the same time using Faderport 8 ? (Like using Ctrl/Cmd and arm on the computer)

For me, It's not BETTER but it's slightly faster and more fun. However, since the price of controllers is mostly expensive, it's no longer fun. I'd rather use a DIY infrared touch screen (faster but less fun than having real faders and knobs) or, if I want to spend more, I'd rather go for a used/new digital mixer like the Behringer Wing. I believe this will increase my workflow speed and be more fun.

Faderport wasnt really intended for Ableton, just like push 1 or 2 is not intended for Studio One. but people started to complain from cubase, fruity pebbles and ableton. so presonus was forced to make it more compatible with other daws.
