If the sliders are important to you, check out using a Peavey PC1600x
midi command station or similar. It has 16 programable sliders, 16
buttons, and a large data wheel. It also has inputs for foot switches
or pedals, both of which are programable.

I use the 1st 9 sliders for drawbars (programable to be reversed so
pulling down/out adjusts similar to real drawbars. Ive heard some
other devices cant do this), the rest of the sliders I use for Perc
Vol-decay-harmonic, Vibrato mix-depth, Keyclick amount and Drive on
the amp. I have a foot switch programed for leslie speed and a pedal
programed for expresion. The 16 buttons are completely programable as
well and I use them for the switches in B4, Vib Lower on/off, Vib
Upper on/off, Perc on/off etc.

You can store many programs for any midi devices/software. So I
copied the patch to the next one up and edited it to control the
lower drawbars, and the leslie sims bass and treble speeds. So now I
have 2 patches that i can easily switch between to control all the
important controls in B4.

I love mine. Its great for syths like FM7 and Pro52 too. Also using
it in my sequencer software for shuttle and mixer control. Its also
built like a tank.
