I was so happy with this:

Re: What would be your ultimate MIDI controller?
Imo there is no need to put all features into a single unit, more important would be doing something which does not exist yet and which would add to all your other controllers you already have. Looking from this perspective I would say:
8 x 32 Matrix grid buttons, where the buttons can get any color, using RGB mixing, and those colors should be programmable via Midi and/or OSC and a .dll which can take input via the command line, also to control the RGB colors of this big 8 x 32 button Matrix.
Another requirement would be being cheaper than 1 x BCR2000 or at maximum cheaper than 2 x BCR2000's prize.
There is no need on the programmability of the midi buttons inside the device, this you can do externally, re-mapping midi note pitches or CC values. Even a fixed midi output would be ok. So you would have mainly only the hardware material and development costs for the whole unit.
Offering 3-4 midi inputs, 3-4 midi outputs.
Buying a case, buttons, RGB LEDs, constant midi output, programmability of the button colors via Midi or OSC. To my knowledge there is no such device in the world yet. Here is something similar: http://luxiium.com/en/product_01.php

Re: What would be your ultimate MIDI controller?
Novation Remote Zero SL + Launchpad is the best combo for me. However, I'd REALLY like hard plastic rubberized knobs and aluminum casing... I'd pay another $100 for it.
If I played gigs a lot, I'd probably ask a metalworking company to create replacement cases for my plastic stuff.
