So I've got a couple DJ rigs each with their purpose; one full size with turntables that I use at home for fun, my main portable digital rig with my Traktor Kontrol S8 and lastly my recently set up super portable rig with individual components making for easy use with a carry on bag with an X1 (not mk2), F1, Z1 and my Midi Fighter Twister. I primarily mix with Traktor with my setups.
Here's the question I have. So I have the original X1 (without the touch strip for nudging a track or more importantly being able to search through a track to enable loop/cue points) and would like to have that functionality. I know I could get a new X1 Mk2 to do this but I do like having 8 cue/loop buttons as I tend to use them all. Does anyone have any suggestions for making this functionality work to add to my setup? I was considering maybe adding another small controller with jog wheels just to use the wheels (Numark DJ2Go2 or Hercules DJ Control Compact.) I know those 2 controllers have a bunch of other functionality that I wouldn't be using and by default are designed for different software but I know they can be mapped with Traktor or at least I think they could hopefully without conflicting with the rest of my midi controllers.
Thank you for any help with this situation.
