Well that is more my nickel Rainer, that's pretty neat and slightly funny re the gaming world, guess this fits all, my son might dig it for his 360 world.  To me that's the main jazz I need the basics then I could do other stuff with hands at least for now.

Thanks for continuing to be amazingly resourceful Rainer.

Jim,

if cheap and small are the main requirements, why not look at
something like this:

This gives you four buttons for $59 via USB, and those buttons can be
mapped to keyboard commands (which in turn can trigger Mobius stuff).
So you could use that for the "realtime critical" functions and switch
between different mappings using scripts and keys on your keyboard (or
buttons on the floor thing), like this:

Setup 1
Record/Overdub, Mulitply, Mute, switch to setup 2

Setup 2
Rate Shift Advance (which with the proper rate shift sequence will
work as halfspeed), Reverse, Next Loop, switch to setup 1
