What do you guys like for controlling Traktor effects?
Just as the title says. I just upgraded to an MP2015, so I’m looking for a controller to get better control over my traktor effects. I used to have one of those Korg nano controls years ago, but didn’t care for it, and I don’t even know what I did with it at this point. What have you guys got for suggestions?
I’m surprised no one has mentioned the MF Twister yet. I think if I had all my other controls sorted, and it was just FX that I need to work, I’d seriously be looking at the Twister. It’s essentially 16 knobs and 16 buttons. So, full control over 4 FX units…
The most user-friendly option in my opinion would be the Kontrol X1. However, if you want to control 4-decks with dedicated knobs and buttons to each deck, you should get 2 of them. Whereas the Xone K2 (similar, same form factor) could already control the basics and effects for 4 decks with 1 unit because it has a lot more controls than the X1, but you could be doing a bit more midi-mapping till you like how it’s configured. I’d go for the Xone K2.
Not trying to be rude, but as the title of the thread says, I’m looking for control over effects (and looping). To mix 4 decks, I simply use what is one of the greatest mixers ever built (MP2015) for my style. I need control over onboard traktor effects and maybe looping too, but then again, drag and drop is a quick fix for that.
