Very nice ones:

http://www.wayoutware.com/  (this one is awesome!))
http://www.nativeinstruments.de/
http://www.clavia.com

but seriously, i love my patch cables and knobs. my mouse just doesn't 
make that satisfying "thunk" when I try and cram the USB plug into a 
jack. i can't even remember why I chose MOTM over doepfer so long ago. 
I've met both Paul & Dieter, and they're both very nice guys. I think it 
was the quality of the demo sounds on Pauls page, the knob-to-knob 
spacing, and Paul's cunning collection of carefully crafted circuits. It 
sure as hell wasn't the price.
