he last physical fader on the 2400 with your last
channel in the software?So if you've got 32 software channels
and you switch to bank 2 you would get channels 8-32 on the 2400
or whatever it would be?
If thats the case then your workaround makes sense and is
pretty painless.Just do projects in multiples of 24 whether or
not there is anything on all the software channels.
Thanks again,
Pete
