Velocity vs Prince Premier Control vs MultiFeel - as mains in a multi/poly hybrid

I have switched to a setup of multi in mains and poly in crosses. I use 16g multis. I have tried Velocity and Prince Premier Control so far and I think I give the slight edge to Premier Control since I find it a bit more crisp. I am unable to try Multifeel currently. Wondering if someone who has used all three as mains in a multi/poly hybrid could share their experience. I mostly use the natural versions but also wondering if there are benefits to using colored versions of them. Triax is also on my radar but it is expensive.
 
I have used multifeel, velocity and triax as mains (in their thickest versions). Velocity had good control but I didn't like the feel and it was moving a lot. The other two tecnifibre strings were quite similar (great snapback) but I prefer multifeel because it is cheaper and softer.

Did you use them in natural or colored versions?
 
dang, PPC is more crisp? Velocity can be very crisp before broken into a more plush stringbed, but does that not happen at all with PPC? been eyeing PPC to try out as an alternative to Velocity
 
PPC is okay, I prefer multifeel. PPC is a little mushier after a bit whereas multifeel has good snapback all the way up until breakage. PPC is also more powerful. Velocity is noticeably firmer to this tennis elbow, I prefer it as a cross though it’ll still go first whereas a poly cross will let you pop the multi mains first. So our observations about PPC and Vel are seemingly backwards from each other.

I’ve got a couple setups going right now, multifeel with ghostwire crosses and multifeel with xalt crosses. Think I’ll settle on ghostwire or revolve crosses if I can ensure they’re as comfortable as element.
 
Multifeel mains setup is more comfortable and powerful than the other two. When fresh it felt and played wonderful, but after 4-5 hours became a bit launchy, probably because of tension loss.
