It seems a bit limited to what it can do, compared to the other MIDI controllers out there. Any prospect of this being supported in VDJ? Anybody have any opinions?

I don't think it will be anything special.
After a while, it should be implemented into VDJ. Everything is noticed by here and everything will be supported, with time. I'm pretty sure if this midi controller brings more hype then I think it will, it would be supported in VDJ. It reminds me of a Denon Dn Hc 1000 but upgraded version.
At the same time, everything that comes from Traktor is quality. Hopefully more people will come and share their knowledge.

It's a MIDI device which means anyone can add full support as of v6... :)

I'm curious aboiut this unit...
I have an RMX and am very happy with it, but sometimes wish I had a few more butons to play with so as to be able to do more things at once.
Would it be possibel to use this controller along side the RMX or can you only use one MIDI controller at a time?
Cheers,
Roy

Good question Roy. Dennon also has a similar unit that is "software specific" to serato. Like mentioned above, if it's midi mappable, we can use it!
Just seems like these are great units with a lot of push buttons, but I'd love to see one of these higher end companies make a controler with more knobs and faders included in the design. Buttons are great for triggering effects and cue points and what not, but knobs and faders is where it's at to really control those midi parameters. I know we have theherc, but tht unit is a bit different than what we are talkingabout here. Different application.

If you just want some extra controls, have a look at the Korg Nano range.
