Arturia Keystep

First: The unit never let me down. The CV outputs are the main reason for my choice using that unit.
But: I'm still missing one thing: Note-On-Arpeggiator-Reset.

The arpeggiator/sequencer is optimized for techno / full synced setups only. I'm using the device playing along a band - if the tempo changes slightly, I'll have to re-sync pressing the tap button - loosing one hand which I would hardly need for turning my knobs!
To explain this point a little more: If I do not re-sync, it may happen that there is no sound at all when I press a key because the internal sequencer is between two steps at this time. It comes even worse: the next note will come for sure - but with broken timing.
In other words: The internal sequencer is just running and my play is been treated like a gate - just turning "sound" on and off.

Arturia technical support promised to implement this option into their next firmware. This was February 2017 (2.5 years ago). Unfortunately there has never been any upgraded version! Instead of that they seem to prefer launching several other products - which I somehow like but do not have the courage to buy after that story.

Until I find some replacement, I'm using MAX/MSP for my sequencing stuff and never even think about pressing "play" on the Arturia.

Thinking about modifying the unit by myself: getting the tap button out and connect it to some foot switch to be able to sync without using my hands.
