This is a solution, but there is the problem of the few led on the console.
I believe is better to sell and add 200 euros than spend this money for adding thing to the Rmx ( I've got an akai lpd8 for the few knobs problem at the moment)

That's why i was believeing of change all my gear.

Is the xponent audio card good? How does it feels when you play it? Plastic? Jogs Are good?
I'm trying to' understand the differenze beetween a vci.
Cause a xponent will cost me x money, and a vci, x plus audio card.

Yes, you're right.
But, i was believeing of selling the rmx for a reason, few few knobs, and few led buttons.
I was believeing of the xponent cause it has got more then twice knobs, and led in every button.
Vci, is Great, for the mapping and firmware you can have here, but i prefer a audio interface in the console, like rmx or xponent, that is Also more powerful.

Xponent, seems plastic btw, so, i don't know, I'm a bit confuse

Xponent more controls, but, plastic feeling and a not so good audio card.
Vci, Great mapping and materials, but no audio card.

I'm looking now for the vci.
What sound card can i use? Ni 2dj is good enough?

Or should i leave, Wait a few months and have a traktor s4?

And the numark mixtrack pro?
I don't know.
I like the xponent, and Also the vci, but with the vci I've to' buy Also a audio card.
Or maybe, Wait a few months and go for a s4?
Or a xponent Or vci work good as well?
I like my rmx, but i want some more knob

the Xponent is not a bad controller...it looks toy but has numerous controls
you don't need metal, specially for home use, s4 is plastic too
here is a guide, maybe it could help you:
