Okay let's do this. I went through some threads and hand picked what seemed most wanted and most feasible new features.
You need to login to google for this. Let's have our voices heard!

If you think an important feature was omitted or some horrible injustice was done by invokating this poll, feel free to discuss.

Thanks for votes so far, I hope more people will have the time/interest to vote still.

I will give it a week or two, after which I make some summary of the votes in this thread.

I don't want to use/create a google account to view the choices on the poll.  There are other online polling services that don't force participants to be in the google club.
I feel you should have consulted the rest of the Beatstep Pro users for their input on what needs addressing in the next firmware before creating the poll.

Feel free to disagree, and make a better poll

I can't even see the poll due to it requiring registration to participate in.

Well, i opened the google vote for anyone, please don't abuse this so the results could be useful.

another vote is now up right on the arturia forums in case you like voting.

Cheers.

Polls have quieted so much that i dare count some further results.
votes of a whopping 23 people say that the important features sorted by points given are as follows:


95 Clear individual drum parts
93 Copy/paste steps/step ranges
91 Midi channel per drum part
90 Change patterns via MIDI in
90 Solo drum part
88 Nudge pattern left/right
87 Step record mode
86 Save pattern chains to project
85 Open source firmware
82 Midi channels saved per project
82 Pattern switch to send program change
80 Individual drum part length/time division
80 Randomize individual drum part
79 Group edit for selected steps
77 Midi passthrough
76 Mute groups for drum parts
75 Autosave pattern
73 Midi channel saved per pattern
72 Record randomness/transposition/looper to pattern
71 Undo last save
69 Microshift melodic sequencers
67 Set first step of pattern
66 Send midi clock when stopped
65 Active step mode
65 CV voltage without gate present
60 Dim non scale notes
58 Set note slide time for CV

The order of features comes not as a surprise, but it is nice to see some figures right? some clear trends are visible, if Arturia dares take up on the challenge to implement even some of these.
