    You can control 4FX banks at once, and you can have access to more cuepoints/samples. Not much else.

    If you want to use 4 FX banks at once then go for it.

    Some say it can be used to trigger samples and cuepoints.

    I have a Kontrol F1 and like many others I never really got a huge hang of the whole remix deck thing aside for a few samples thrown in the mix so I mapped the F1 to have multiple pages of midifighter/ cue point control and the knobs/ faders on the top definitely add for some good effects control if that is what you are looking for.

    this discussion lol. If you don't know what you need out of a controller, who else would? Just pay attention to your workflow, pay attention to what is most difficult to achieve, and let that tell you where you need to expand your gear.
    Also, most gear that is produced nowadays have their features listed and reviewed ad nauseum all over the internet! Just take a minute to do some research, and you'll find the thing you need.
