Hello friends. QLC noobie here. Anyone got any recommendations for physical faders for qlc? I have an Akai APC Mini which I got working, but I would like more physical slider faders.
Thanks
Noah

Have a look here:

There are many more solutions, but these ^^ work out of the box.

I've used different controllers with QLC+:
- up to three Korg nanoKontrol2, which are relatively cheap but not very robust in my experience (faders start to output random values around the bottom position). Also it can be tricky to get them in order because during hot plugging ALSA cannot properly distinguish them, as far as I understood (If using more than a single one I run them through a USB 2.0 hub).
- my M-Audio Axiom 61 (1st generation)
- a Behringer BCF2000
All three are well supported (input profiles exist), though the BCF2k needs a bit time and reading to be configured properly (in my experience at least).
