Because you have screens in the jog wheels, you can pitch bend using the side of the platter while watching the hardware screen , not the laptop. Speed up Track 2 to 124 BPM using the 100mm pitch fader. You can see the numeric BPM change in real-time on the wheel. Those cost $1,200
While the hardware is great, the "Best" feature comes from the software side.
Virtual DJ uses a scripting language (VDJScript) that allows you to remap every single button on the Mixtrack Platinum FX. Don't like what the "Echo" button does? Change it in 10 seconds. Want the Pad FX to trigger a custom beat-repeat roll? Done. This is why pros call VDJ the "Linux of DJ software."
