controllers for SSL

I would like to have an easy controller so I won't have to touch the computer as much.Maybe some kind of gamepad would work. I just want to hear from others who have tried different stuf for this. Btw, I'm on a macbook pro so I'm looking for something that works with mac.

i wouldnt mind a controller made by Rane that is essentially the controls from the TTM 57SL but as a seperate unit so if you have a club gig you can use this controller (maybe place it on top of the club mixer) and control SSL

I second that ^^ but then RANE wouldnt be doing itself any real favours by making a cheaper add on unit, as opposed to DJs having to buy the 57sl for full playability.

www.piengineering.com I think these are the most popular option at the moment, Im also considering getting one of the x key sticks

MIDI is coming in 1.8, so you'll be able to use any USB MIDI controller.

You can also use game controllers right now (I've done it with an Xbox one) to control certain things. Just map the controller buttons to keyboard keys.
