I'm big fan of BB and use it for every jam. It's very important to me to have smallest as possible setup. I have few midi controllers, but none of them are perfect. For many reasons (small, compact, light) i use Nanokontrol2. It have only one bad side - just two controllers per track - knob + slider. The same time there are few buttons i almost never use - mute/solo/record.
My dream for BB is if we could combine two controllers (one static button and one variable knob/slider) into one, another controller. In that case we could set:
KNOB1 - cutoff
MUTE1+KNOB1 - resonance
SLIDER1 - volume
MUTE1+SLIDER1 - gain
SOLO1+SLIDER1 - OUT2 volume
etc...
It will require to implement additional LEARN option (for example hold learn button longer to set COMBINED LEARN option). In that case Learn option will wait for TWO cc values, which one is changing like 0-1 (just two values button, it may be momentary/toggle) and second, which will change during learning. Sounds complicated, but it's just like in computer keyboard - just use ALT/SHIFT/CTRL to change another key reaction.
It could be used with any midi controller and allow to *MUCH* more possibilities, especial for small, portable setups.
