To be honest with you, I use the midifighter a lot more. I like having duplication of controls, but yeh in my current controller only setup (obviously couldn't bring TTs etc out to spain), the X1 sometimes finds itself a little redundant. I use it more if I'm spinning with DVS at home, and I do find the hotcue mode useful. Thing is, since I got my MF and the insta-FX, I generally just use them and don't need to adjust parameters too much. If I ever get round to incorporating the sample decks usefully, I have them mapped to midi mode along with the loop recorder.

I was on my friends SSL setup and I was having a lot of fun, but i think that has more to do with using his TTs vs using serato. And don't kid yourself, when your looking at the screen you arent really beatmatching, youre wavematching(if thats not a term im trademarking it). This isn't a slam on serato, I throughly enjoyed it. The simplicity of it forced me to focus on my mixing and using the effects sparingly vs filling my time playing with the effects until i was ready to start mixing in my next track, although I suspect that has more to do with the TTs than the program as well.
would be cool if they could implement the bridge's mixtape for any mixer that can output midi. Would be easy enough to read the midi from a DJM-800 or whatever, and only supporting 2 mixers is a serious limitation of a pretty damn useful feature imo.
