Hello Jörn,

Didn't think about the mains cable :( I think it will get very hard to 
find a single wireless midi device with at least one fader that runs on 
batteries. You will most likely end up with two separate devices, a 
battery powered MIDI controller and a battery powered MIDI wireless 
device, and will have to do some integrating yourself. And does it 
really have to be a fader box? So knobs won't work?

Best,

Jeremy
