New Native Instruments controller.

Right…or the reloop mentioned above…but preferably one that didn't look and feel like a toy.

DN sc2000. Steel casing, build quality, etc.

I don't see why this is a discussion. The X1 does what it's supposed to do, which is control Traktor. If it had a jogwheel, it would be tiny and near worthless. That's why it didn't have one in the first place; there's no point in wasting space on a jogwheel just to say that there is one, especially when it's designed to be useful in any setup. I still don't quite get the obsession with controller jog wheels. You want to scratch in Traktor, go buy Traktor Scratch. If you just want to look interesting while you play (which is reasonable), get some turntables and learn how to use em, because you'll never look good scratching anything on a coaster sized plastic circle.

I agree with most of what you say but jogs can be used for quite more than scratching and browsing. The X1 doesn't have them because it originally target DVS users, using it as a "companion" rather than the main piece of kit.
