I never been one for cutting on the line faders even when I was battling. To me the stiff upfaders are not really a problem. I wouldn't mind some control over the curve. I actually have a spare 1st gen mini innofader. I bought it on eBay off some kid who switched his crossfader for a full size innofader.

I watched a vid and learned how to change the curve manually via the calibration - instead of putting the faders all the way down to the bottom (like it says to) you put them half way down/up instead - works real good - obviously only when using Traktor not as an analogue mixer...

I actually try not to use Serato anymore. I use it in cases where I really have to but, rather spin on the Z2 because the effects, cues and loops. In NYC it's 99% Serato so I get weird looks when I spin on Traktor but, once they see I can DJ they get over it.

You might need your SL box depending where you spin. What city are you in?

I barely use Serato now. My SL4 gets almost no use. I mainly use when I need to practice for upcoming gigs I have to use Serato for. I much prefer using my Z2. I don't actually need a serato box since my crew owns an SL1/SL3. My SL4 is kind of useless besides using it for practice. In NYC you will never find anything besides Serato boxes or Mixers and for that reason I probably will always keep around a Serato box.
