Heyo I have this Akai MPK Mini mk2 controller that has drumpads on it. I was thinking maybe you should code a new drumpad plugin for things like MPC's and other Midi Controllers alike?

It's been discussed numerous times, but the fiddly bits of getting Midi controllers to work with LMMS haven't quite been ironed out yet... Also, why a drumpad plugin when you could just route different samples to different MIDI channels? (which hasn't been made functional yet, but I think this would be a better way)
