I mostly mix techno and tech-house. I use the 4-decks in Traktor (hope to definitively change to Mixxx with 1.12) to play full tracks and layer loops or build-up sounds. For me, every characteristic of the EQ I could tweak would be a total win. I HATE Traktor forcing me to use its predefined EQs. What happens if I'd prefer their ISO EQ with more gain? What if I would like the same EQ but with four bands? What if I want different behaviour for mid and low bands? I was tempted to move to Ableton just for the possibility to build my own signal path with the EQ I like.

It's a matter of what you feel comfortable with while mixing. Back in the analog days when EQs were a hardwired circuit, little you could do to adapt the EQ to you. You had to adapt yourself to the EQ. But now, you could freely fine tune the EQ to what you like the most. Why has someone to tell me which type of EQ I should use? (let me here omit the hard work you do coding all this stuff).
