I keep both my line faders up and crossfade just because it's the way I've always done it... Old dog and all that...
My mixer (this isn't my actual mixer, mine's a bit dustier)... My sister bought this new in the 80s, I inherited it when she quit DJ-ing... I fucking love this machine...

I think i started using line faders when i was regularly doing with a friend of mine. He was quite good at scratching and chopping stuff up (much better than i was) but he was used to reversing the crossfader. I got sick of accidentally cutting records off because he'd left the fader reversed, so I just left it in the middle and used line faders. I even used to use line faders to scratch and cut quickly - i seem to remember being able to crab line faders pretty well. It's been many moons since I was that kind of dj though!
Would they not just each have a level rotary? I quite often don't bother with the x fader when i'm playing, and just use the line faders.
