When will Touchstrip of MK3 finally offer the same options as with MK2?

Question

After upgrading to Komplete Control MK3, the Touchstrip lost the option to function as a pitch bend wheel (being centered, touching left or right bends the notes down or up and the touchstrip goes back into the centered position).

When will this functionality finally be re-implemented? Thank you!

Yeah I was disappointed when that got dropped in MkII, now they are even less useful. If we get functionality back I would rather have MkI functionality than just to go back to MkII

The MK1 keyboard offered a fully programmable LFO for the TS which included inertia, gravity, elasticity and features such as ping-pong so you could actually modulate a parameter like a little Kaoss Pad and generate cool effects which you could then record.

@timrae_NI  , any chance that the touch strip on the S-Series MK3 will have upgraded it's functionality to include something like that  ?

Be thankful that is all you miss. The MK1 keyboard offered a fully programmable LFO for the TS which included inertia, gravity, elasticity and features such as ping-pong so you could actually modulate a parameter like a little Kaoss Pad and generate cool effects which you could then record. That was back in a time where there was a vision and a dream.
