SoftStep Nav Keys

Any SoftStep users here successfully hacked the Nav keys for your own evil 
purposes?

SS is a promising lightweight portable foot controller but the gotcha (for 
me) is the relatively hard coded nature of the Nav keys.

These keys ought to be perfect to use for next and previous loop commands 
across one axis, and next/previous layer or scene or whatever, across the 
other axis. Echoloop, EDP, Mobius style workflow.

I've been messing with MIDI Pipe and MIDI Translator to try to convert 
SoftStep's output to simple Note On and Note Off messages, with only 
partial success… in Standalone mode with Scene Change set to OFF… so I'm 
getting CC messages 80, 81, 82, 83 from the SS nav keys… 

Any insights out there?

Phil :)
