By altering the curve shape, you can use the crossfader for quick cutting effects or supersmooth transitions. Another pro feature that M-Audio left in their LE edition of Torq is the ability to customize the sharpness of the crossfader curve. This means that if you want to go crazy and have your hardware EQ knobs control your software's headphone volume, you're free to reassign them. First and foremost, unlike novelty DJ systems like the Hercules Mobile DJ MP3, the Torq LE software allows users to easily custom-assign almost any parameter in the software to the included hardware controller (or any connected MIDI controller). Beyond the basics, there were also some professional features on Torq LE that we were surprised to see.
