The novation launchpad is in pretty much every studio and it's only $400 or so. Teenage Engineering makes some really cool stuff and they charge boutique prices for it.

Sounds like you answered your own question :)

TE sure make some expensive gear, but they also make cheap gear, checkout the Pocket Operators. They are deceivingly good for the price (and aesthetics).

The OP-1 does have it's use case though, and it can definitely been seen in the wild, although cheaper gear can of course be even more popular.
