It looks a bit crap to be honest, the whole appeal of the vci100 for me was the sturdy all metal design!
Plastic means cheap in my eyes!

Sure doesn't look that impressive at the moment. They can lose that stupid joystick for a start. And so expensive... do they not realise that NI & Denon both have mint controllers coming out next month? I'd stick with the original VCI if i used one personally.

I'm not hating on the plastic at all. That stuff can be strong, but I predict lots of problems with the tension adjustment on those jogs.
At first I hate... the I think hmmm.... actually having that layout which is almost perfectly designed for Tpro is nice.
I heart my VCI-100 mki Arcade Button badboy though... this doesn't make me feel the need to upgrade.
I'll have to have a go on one to know... are they saying the jogs are high res? ie high res midi or HID, that's kind of big...
Don't get me wrong, I think other controllers are infront of this now and this isn't the vestax traktor game changer it could have been. Just needed a more rugged build

Club of Jacks are a London based House & Garage production / DJ duo with releases on a number of underground labels including Plastik People Recordings, Blockhead Recordings, Hi Energy!, Pocket Jacks Trax, Soul Revolution Records and their own Club of Jacks imprint.
I really like the layout. Maybe we can take one; strip the plastic chassis, build a metal enclosure, and slap some arcade buttons on it. And why not throw the djtt knob pack on it, with a few extras for the new knobs; and add a FOOTSWITCH input (why don't more controllers have this).
