That's some really nice stuff they've got there! :-)

Not quite what I'm looking for right now, though. (Although I could 
definitely find uses for these gadgets as well. :-)

Right now, I'm thinking in terms of a rather minimal sequencer control 
panel, preferably integrated with a relatively large color LCD. I 
want to be able to record and arrange a whole MIDI song using only 
this UI and the master keyboard. Shuttle control, navigation, 
selection and basic edit functions must be easilly accessible.
