I have some kids with autism who would really dig playing a controller

though yoshimi.  But they are really tough on gear. If it was just me using

it I'd probably hunting for a nice deal on an oxygen 49 or 61. But my

suspicion is those shiny little mappable controllers would be the first to

go. Possibly followed by the functioning of the keys. Although, hey, what if

I mapped a bunch of the sliders to a subtractive synth and cut them loose?

I'm torn.

Of the models that work with linux, which would be tough and survive abuse?

And how tough can those little controller knobs really be?
