Thank You Prof Locodog for explaining the advantages of encoders vs pots, as to the difference in scripting. I always learn a lot, and appreciate you sharing, since I need all the help I can get at the moment, to decide what is the best choice.
And for comparison, In the US the current price (new) is:
Midi Fighter Twister $219.99
Foxfader EC4 $379
Both with free shipping
and the decision would be easy if either was a 5x4 grid layout.
do you feel if one waits a bit, that someone will come out with a solution ideal for 5 stems and 4 decks?
----------------
PS there was a used Midi Fighter Twister on ebay today that I bid on, but only up to 50% of the new price.. it ended up selling for 195.50 plus 9.50 shipping if I remember all the details (about, $15 less then new, in this case)

I don't think there'll be a +16 encoder device for a while, on a HW to FW level more encoders seriously bumps up the PLC cost [the brainbox inside the device]
the fact that the twister goes for that 2nd hand price I would take that as a good indication that it is decent, being an ebay sniper Jan/Feb is always pretty good for bargains [also check gumtree, not sure of the US variant]
faderfox v twister new; I can't say precisely because I've only used 1, but $379 for a faderfox is STEEP compared to the twister $219 & if you don't like the twister - it was a $20 mistake
