A lot of people are now using Pioneer controllers, and some of the newer units are designed around Rekordbox, and offer "sound colour FX" controls, whereby the single knob filter effect can be changed to space, noise, gate (and these can be customized in software).
I know the VDJ mappings of these controllers have done their best to utilize this feature, but certain FX are missing or in my view need more development.
Personally I'd like to see "Space" get added, it's an effect I use quite a lot, and "Noise" is ok but it needs more work, to sound as good and be as functional as it is on Pioneer mixers.

You can actually do a lot yourself.
On top of the basic effects that comes with VDJ out of the box, and the ones at the download page, remember that VDJ also supports .vst effects, which means that you can basically add any effect you want to the software, as long as you have it in a 32-bit .vst version. So if you have the "space" effect you can simply add it and use it
On top of that you can map how you use them, so you can combine them any way you want - on 1 button if you like - sequence them, let them do auto parameter changes along the way (or use manual parameter change like on Pioneer gear) and so on. So basically there is really nothing you can't do with VDJ and effects when you start playing with it
A while back I made a small video where I combine effects in 8 different ways on a pad page.
It's just for inspiration, and the idea is that you can do the same with any effect combinations you like. It may be worth watching
