Consoles

Before I choose a midi controller I wanted to clarify something; can you only use the controllers that are listed in the console window? Also; I asked this in another thread but thought i'd repeat it here. Are you able to use midi controllers as flash buttons?
Our show relies on my ability to cue to moving head and laser patterns while my partner controls the strobes and on/off green lasers live. He has to have the ability to use certain keys or buttons to flash the strobes etc.
Edit: Nevermind I found in the manual that you can use pretty much any midi controller; I just didn't see how to add one in the console editor. I also saw that there is a midi setting which says "flash" true or false. This leads me to believe you can flash with the midi controller.
