No no no – the crossfader is not the problem. The sound card in the Xponent has a ton of latency. As an experiment, I ran the sound through my Conectiv (while using the Xponent) and its much much better.

good point, i did not test it with another sound card. Personally the latency did not feel that bad, and performed well at a low buffer but it could have been better. I still think the cross fader cut could be sharper though :-) its not picking up the 1/16 note transforms.

I'm not sure you can test it with another sound card, but it definitely while both were connected. I did test the fader cut in a bit more, its not as sharp as they come – but its a combination of software and hardware. I was playing with the Xponent and Traktor – same problem there, but you can hear a gradual cut in. Its slight, but its still an issue if you are going for 1/16ths.

I plan to get me a Xponent, but first one question. The buttons (play/cue), are they soft rubber like "Denon" or hard plastic (I like CDJ-1000 buttons)
Thanks!
Ean
good question-
I found the buttons to a bit too soft and squishy for my taste. They are certainly more like the Denon buttons.

hey..goto torq exponent official forums and search for exponent tractor mapping or something like that and there are loads of links to download the tracktor maps. then jsut install and you are off! maybe do some little tweaks after to suit your individual needs though :)
