    Hi,
    I just would like to know if it's an hardware issue and in case what controller you can suggest, I'm using a nanokontroll2 - I'm aware I can't pretend much from it - but it's impossible for me to fade manually a cue list, I've tried both the 1 and 2 sliders options: when I reach around the middle of the slider movement the output levels become suddenly very low, the effect it's like to pass almost thruogh a black before reacing the 2nd cue.
    Is it be possible to adjust the curve of the cross-fade?
    I'd like to know how it works for you, thanks.

    A kind request for the developers...

    I've found out why it's not possible to fade manually a cue list with a simple test, just 1 dimmer from 50% to Full, 2 cues:
    - in timed mode it's correct and the output change between these 2 values;
    - in the manual mode the output goes down till the 2nd cue reaches the level of the 1st one;
    on the stage this means a temporary under lowering of the lighting that it's not tolerable.
    I've tried to adjust it manually but it's out of my ability, especially thinking of a full show.
    Today I had the occasion to test it with 2 professional consoles and the behavior it's as espected, using a single or double manual Xfade.
    Probably not much people care about this but personally I'm looking for the possibily to play manually a cue list.
    I'd appreciate an answer and anyway thanks for all your work.

    Noticed the same. First I thought: shitty dimmers. But they where ok. Have some time tomorrow in the theatre to check it.
