just been learning the joys of having a $10 IR usb remote blu-tacked to my screen and controlling Reaper... found one with 15 programmable buttons at my local ALDI store (if anyone has one nearby) in ferntree gully australia
still want a tranzport but this thing is the next best thing, and a lot easier on my wallet at the moment :P
only thing is i cant get it to work with the most excellent Reaperscript DIY...
Maybe it's bypassing AutoHotKey's grabbing of the keyboard.
I'm almost tempted to try to find the device of which you speak, but when it comes down to it, I'm spoiled for controllers already. But buying cheap fun Stuff is always a pleasure....
