Reply to Pioneer DDJ T1 vs Traktor Kontrol S4

I know this topic has been created at least one time before, but it didn't contain the information that I was looking for.

I've been simply laptop DJing for about 2 and a half years using JUST Deckadance simply because I could never afford any controllers and I couldn't find any controller (or set of controllers) that worked well with Deckadance and that I personally liked. However, about 3 months ago I decided to buy the DJ Tech 101 Series controllers because they seemed to be what I wanted for Deckadance. I quickly discovered that was a bad choice.

Currently, I'm using the still DJ Tech 101 Series controllers (sad, I know). But I have downloaded the mappings for them so I can use Traktor Pro 2. So far, Traktor is much much better in just about every single manor. Obviously, controllers designed for Deckadance are very limited when using them for Traktor, so I decided to do much searching for a single controller for Traktor NOT set of controllers because I'm very mobile and I'm kind of tired of carrying 4 boxes everywhere.

I have found that I really look for these things in controllers:
FULL control of Traktors effects
Jog wheel effect mapping
Spacious knobs
"Slip Mode" (I understand that Traktors beatmashing effect is similar to slip)
4 deck control
Hot Cues
Built in sound card
Monitor out
and bright lights/vivid displays are always nice

Throughout my searching I found that I really like the layout of the Pioneer DDJ T1, but I also like the performance of the Kontrol S4 slightly more than the DDJ T1.

Which do you recommend?

A big reason why I like the S4 is because of the job wheel effect capability, I'm not sure if you can do that on the T1. However, I really like the size and structure of the T1, especially the ability to slide a laptop under the middle. The T1 also appears to have brighter buttons and the jog wheels just look plain cool and it's very helpful to be able to glance at your controller and see which decks are playing.

If you have any other suggestions for a single controller, please post those too!

Also, I wouldn't mind buying external effects units such as the Kontrol X1 or a Midi Fighter, so if you recommend a combination of those I'd love to hear it.

If I was unclear or scatter brained anywhere, just ask. Thanks! Any feedback will help a LOT.
