MIDI Control of Cubasis

Hi Lars,
I’m willing to pay $$ for a Cubasis upgrade that includes full external MIDI controller support for effects and the mixer, and also support for MIDI start/stop commands to start/stop recording via the footswitch input on my MIDI keyboard.
I have a Korg microKontrol waiting on my Cubasis workstation for this, I really want to use the sliders to adjust the levels of the channels without having to open the mixer tab. Using the rotary encoders for controlling panning or fx send levels would be great too.
I’d pay more $$ for proper FX send busses as well
I’ve pretty much abandoned my high-powered laptop and do all my work in Cubasis now, but these two features are holding me back.
Maybe you can make the case to Steinberg mgmt. to hire another developer or two to make this happen?

cheers,
