all right so, i've been meaning to make the switch for quite awhile now. i just recently managed to sell my ANCIENT set up and i've been saving up for a good controller. i've got about $500 or so, currently, and i just want some feedback before i dive into it.
definitely want jog wheels, i did some light scratching here and there so definitely still want something with that feel, i think.
really heavily considering the vci-100. on ebay i can definitely buy it in my price range and have some left over for other accessories. and i've heard lots of good things about it. my question -- are the newer models equipped with latest firmware (i think i read here about some laggy business?) if they are, i'm afraid if i buy from ebay the problem won't be resolved. thoughts?
recently i've been wanting to hold off on getting the vci-100 though, because i'm wondering if any newer controllers are one the market yet or will be on the market. i mean, if vestax is about to come out with something better, i'd want to hold off for that.
speaking of which, i read about the new fx controller coming out for the vci-300. this is tempting because of the better jog wheel, and i'm a bit more familiar with serato than traktor. still out of my price range, but i'm wondering if i should hold off for this til i have a bit more?
so what do you think? around 500, should i go for the vci-100 or look into something else? your input greatly appreciated!
