I'll bump this, I think I had the crossfading mixer open for about an hour before I realized that the curve is way to ffing steep for my purposes.

i think vegas (the last program i used, i guess that shows how long ago i used it) has an awesome crossfade solution. you just move the two sounds together and, instead of one pr both getting shortened so there's no overlap, they just blend together and you see a volume curve going down from the first and up from the second, which can then be edited as to when it can happen and how fast it will happen. i wish live had this, soooooo bad. like the one guy said, not everybody uses this to dj hip hop, i use it as a cheap and easy daw, so stuff like that is essential.

I agree, the crossfader in Live is completely useless for normal smooth DJing. I just have to pop it into the middle position and use the faders instead. Being able to adjust the curve would be ideal.

I've drawn in different crossfader curves as CC clips, and trigger then with BCR buttons. I'm too useless to do a 128-beat smooth crossfade manually.
If you don't like the single crossfader curve, use two volume CCs in the same clip instead. Set one to rise, and the other to fall at whatever rate you want. Exponential, cutting, linear... whatever you want!

Yes I agree that adding fader curves and smooth crossfading would be great. Ableton if your listening please make this a priority on your next upgrade/edition.

now thats a good idea using dummy clips i take it? hmm think ill try that with my ms pinky, see if i could in theory scratch without a mixer, i could draw the xfade movements as clips.

This feature was supposed to be added in a 5. release.
I remember monolake mentioned it after 5 was first released. One of the extra features that would be added before version 6 because so many had asked for this.

has any one tryed mixing chan a out = sound card out 1/2 and chan b as headphone out sound card chan 3/4 and just run that into your mixer chan's 1 + 2. This is only good for playing not recording your set. but dose take care of the beatmapping for you when your off chops.all your cueing is then done through the 2 chan mixer [ which dose have x fader /(.curve

for the people that are not aware of this:
right-click on the crossfader;
a contextual menu with different curves will pop up..
