Additional FX control device(s) with DDJ-400

Hi!
I recently purchased the DDJ-400. So far I think it's a great value DJ controller and I'm having a great time with it (esp now with self quarantine situation).
However, I'm looking for additional device(s) to pair with my DDJ-400 to control the beat FX2 channel as well the other beat FX parameters in single/multi-mode to make full use of the features available to me in RekordBox to enhance my set; without having to resort to using the mouse for that.

I'm having a hard time finding a device that fits that purpose. I had looked into possible MIDI devices, but non of them seem to support RekordBox.

Please advice.

You could use any MIDI device - not just those which are rekordbox-specific. I often use a software MIDI device to simulate controls for support purposes.

Thanks for the answer. Which Pioneer devices currently offering could I use for this purpose?

DDJ-SP1, DDJ-XP1, DDJ-XP2 are all pad/FX specific controllers, but you could use anything - I use an NI Kontrol X1 or F1 from time to time.

Yeah, the world is your oyster with MIDI devices! I've even read of guys using Wiimotes and translation software to turn their Wii controllers into MIDI input for rekordbox. lol

I was very excited to play around with it! ....Until I just found out that MIDI configuration has moved behind a subscription paywall since RB 6.x. :(
