Rekordbox effects being phased out with new controllers?!

I’m frustrated that you (Pioneer) seem to be turning your back on your Rekordbox effects section ...the DDJ-RX/RZ series has two assignable FX units w 6 total stackable effects with knobs. Every single one of the new controllers coming out takes that away in favor of a clumsy single assignable effect from the DJM mixers. I do do a weekly mix show/twitch broadcast where I scratch and overlay acappellas over the mix, I count on wetting those down with a combination of rekordbox effects so it blends better into the track playing… I wouldn't be able to do the show the way I do if I upgraded to any of these XDJs or new DDJs. Frankly, they are way dumbed down. And no one is talking about it.

What am I missing? Are you planning on updating the RX/RZ soon? Why even have these FX in Rekordbox if there are no new systems that use them anymore?
