What about this:
1.
Let mappings declare how many knobs per mixer channel they offer
(typically 5: 3-band eq, gain and quick effect)
2.
Decide what to show and how to map based on number of declared knobs /
number of bands of the selected EQ:
3 declared knobs:
Number of Eq bands:
No Eq
2
3
1st knob
Gain

No, just to Traktor's emulation.
