Does anyone have experience controlling Ardour with an

Optimal would be a small USB controller, with maybe 4 configurable
sliders, a wheel and transport control. I would prefer not paying for
audio features, but it would be nice if the controller would double as a
midi interface.
I also heard about (cheap?) mixers which output midi and could act as
controllers.
You're supposed to be able to assign MIDI CC's to the faders by
ctrl+middle clicking on the fader. I have a Peavy 16 fader MIDI
controler and it works with other apps, but Ardour doesn't see it. Don't
know why. haven't had time to talk to the devs about it yet. There are
helpful people on #ardour on irc.freenode.net.
