After having brought my much loved Novation Twitch to its limits, I am on the search for a new controller. The Twitch was perfect for me, although I did find it lacking points in the following areas:
- No 4 Deck support
- Not the greatest soundcard
- Tricky/makeshift FX handling in Serato DJ
Ideally I would choose a 4 deck Twitch with the above changes, but as that is not available i am forced to look into other controllers. I don't have much use for jog wheels, so having large Jog wheels would be a waste of space and weight. Furthermore, I should be able to carry the Twitch's successor in a backpack or small travel case. Given this, I have shortlisted the following controllers:
- Vestax VCI-400 (DJ or not)
- Pioneer DDJ-SX2
- Numark NV
What do you guys think? I am open to any suggestion, given that the proposed controller works with Serato DJ.
Much love,
Brando
