I just looked into getting a controller for triggering the blackbox.
I stumbled over the Novation Launchpad wich seems to have a mode, where the host application (in this case the BB) can send it midi notes to enable/colour leds on its pads.
Since the BB acts as USB Midi host, it might be possible to have a mode, where this LED Feedback messages (simple midi notes with color coded into velocity value from what i read) could be sent from the BB.
This way, the Launchpad could always show the current state the related pad/sequence is in on its led pads.
Seems like a perfect match for the BB and can be bought for cheap (i saw used ones for 30€).
