VCI-100SE + Kontrol X1?
Posted on: 05.10.2010 by Tatum Ansaldo
Hi,

I have the set up you can see below including a VCI-100SE, I noticed that many people on the community also have a Traktor Kontrol X1.

My question is simply is it worth it? What extra functionality do you get by having an X1 alongside?

Thanks!

Yeh, I suppose you get better looping functionality and all 8 hotcues in 1 place. Also, easier access to individual effects on both decks at the same time.

Anyone who uses both got any thoughts?
