what? Just ask in your native language. One of us on here is bound to speak it, and will help you out.
Both have their benefits and yes, misfits. Search the forum, this question has been asked a million times.
I have both and have used both as a standalone mixer. K2 is way better for using than an X1 in that respect.
I agree. Faders on K2 make mixing easier...it just seems like a more natural mapping to use the K2 as a mixer rather than the X1. With the K2 you get 4 line faders, 4 sets of 3 pots for EQs (Lo/Mid/Hi), plus a 4x4 button matrix for triggering cues, loops etc...plus some encoders etc...
I love my X1, but it has its purpose, and for me, that purposes is not mixing.
^This, plus the 3 latching layers will come in handy in a production environment vs the X1's single shift layer.
