unless I want to do some kinda turntablist like things I don't touch the crossfader at all...

but when I use ableton, I use it for the dry/wet switch for my FX...

its very simple and effective...let's say you route your FX returns to channel 4...then I set the crossfader so that when I move it it mixes with channel 4...funny thing is for example having a delay routed this way...

you can "rytmically gate" the delayed signal with the crossfader...which is funny

I can use both but I prefer to use the upfaders.

Once you go up faders you don't go back.

i use the gain to get the tracks peaking at the same level on the channel meters during bpm/pitch adjustment. then use the crossfader and the faders/eq during the transition.
