Oxigen 8 - MIDIMAN -
regular MIDI or USB
2 octaves - 8 knobs
I use it all the time, controling 2 comps at the same time 1 via USB - 1 Via Midi, it's limitless

What about the Remote 25 ? with 8 knobs, 8 sliders, 8 buttons, and a pressure pad?

Or the bitstream, as mentioned earlier....

I use Evolution UC16 ( http://www.evolution.co.uk/moreinfo/hardware/uc16.htm ), right row for speeds, left row for blending, other knobs for playhead, channel fx, global fx. Those knobs are very small and spaces among them are small, so I had to remove for knobs to get more space for fingers... This is disadvantage of this type which is the cheapest controller I found, also knobs are so badly made that you cant reach null position, even if you rotate with them quietly to left. We used Phatboy before, but its knobs has no durability... All other resolume functions - filters and blending type I have mapped on keyboard.... so there is almost no neccessity to use mouse and work with program is uncomparably faster and intuitive
