I would say if you're looking for increased cubase productivity you are definitely not going to get a heap of stuff out of the bcr/bcf. I mean it has 8 faders and say you load in a sampler like battery. Batter loads about 1000 channels into the mixer so unfortunately immediately you're going to be scrolling forever to find the channel you're looking for*
As I say with ableton live though more knobs are better, the midi control in that program is outstanding.
* I am not the be all and end all of knowledge about this, I mention this also to be disagreed with, please, someone disagree with me and let me know some tips and tricks !
