Novation Nocturn - been using one for years & it's perfect for traktor fx.
Twister, with my custom mapping
The most user-friendly option in my opinion would be the Kontrol X1. However, if you want to control 4-decks with dedicated knobs and buttons to each deck, you should get 2 of them. Whereas the Xone K2 (similar, same form factor) could already control the basics and effects for 4 decks with 1 unit because it has a lot more controls than the X1, but you could be doing a bit more midi-mapping till you like how it's configured. I'd go for the Xone K2.
tbh, i love using the Kontrol F1 and mapping some super functions too.
Kontrol X1 is great, but really enjoyed using the Midi-Fighter Twister as well - lots of fun!
There was no mention of 4 decks from the OP but still... if I was using 4 decks i'd get 2 x X1 mk2s.
CLUB OF JACKS - RELEASES >>TRAXSOURCE

After all this posts of Xone K2 I was thinking.... he just wants FX control, so why an audio interface?
Even better, get a Xone K1, its cheaper

Not trying to be rude, but as the title of the thread says, I'm looking for control over effects (and looping). To mix 4 decks, I simply use what is one of the greatest mixers ever built (MP2015) for my style. I need control over onboard traktor effects and maybe looping too, but then again, drag and drop is a quick fix for that.
