VCI-100 - Return or Keep?

[inov8]

I tend to find that, if I use the crossfader, it finds itself in the middle too often, making a drop in volume at some point more likely. If that makes any sense?

Didn't know about soft control. Just looked it up. Sounds interesting. Does it work with Traktor 3.4?

Anywyas, I've got my VCI-100 set up in front of me now and I think I'm gonna hang on to it. It has enough functionality to grow with me for quite some time. More so if I pimp it. I could perhaps incorporate an APC40 into my setup at the end of the year.

Sidechain compression aka Smart Mixing

Is that like adding compression to a track in a DAW to make it pump?
