Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol keyboard. Since I have Komplete and use NI plugins for about 98% of my softsynth needs, it was a no brainer really. It can also function in normal MIDI mode at the touch of a button, so I can still use it for ACT control of mixer channels. In some other hosts it can also be used for navigating the track view, autofocusing on the selected track, arming for record, etc.  It'd be great if Sonar added support for those functions too! 

All l you fancy guys with Console 1.  My favorite improvement is my awesome oversized volume knob.

I would put the ARC that came with my RME Ucx high on the list (I use it for basically the same as you use yours ), so I will not dis, or disagree

Console 1 - it is so nice to be able to use both visual and auditory cues in cutting/boosting eqs.  And the plethora of knobs!!!  And the inclusion of compatibility with many of the UAD plugs.  This is so much more refined than automap or Act or any other thingy that helps control Sonar.
 

This is so strange. Until recently, I had never heard of this, then I saw a release ad for their updated version and now I'm finding people talking about Console 1 all over the place.

I have had mine for almost a year (I think), and like it more and more (still ).
I have been saying it wherever possible 
The integration with (SONAR) UAD, and the release of the Mk II (lower price), has made it reach a larger audience.
It's finally getting the praise it deserves 
All the best.

I also have the Level Pilot.  It is such a simple thing but is quite nice.

I used a Level pilot for a couple years. It's a good choice for a first for an introduction in monitor control.
I'm using a Mackie big knob now though. I made this move about 4 months ago.
Im very happy with the Big knob. I love the options on the BK vs. the level pilots 1 knob.
