Quicker to use a mouse and therefore no use for having a dedicated fader controller; unless it locks to any selected track, instantly. Wasn't sure the x touch defo has this.
There are some "logic problems" with that, f.e. read

In short: by default X-Touch One is working as MCU. But MCU has 8 channels, so there is no one single "current" channel.
There can be several approaches, but they all are not universal across DAWs.

According to mentioned thread, firware 1.07 should do what you want, so follow mouse. But it is probably wise to wait someone with the device who can confirm that.

Alternatively, there is CSI DIY solution. So you ask the device to not emulate MCU and define what it should do yourself. In this case you have full control but have to spend time to write that control...
