Beside the NI controller, which just lacks the additional inputs, I 
recommend a little Quatafire plus a foot controller. Its just one Midi 
cable more, its very small (1/3 rackspace) and has 4 analog ins, two of 
them as mic/instrument in and two lines. And in the little box there are 
two! extra Midi in and outs.

There is also in the same size a box from Presonus, but with only 1 Midi 
in/out.

The Multiface is for sure equipped with much better converters, but it 
lacks the mic preamps, and thus you'd also need a mixer.
