Adding ribbon RBN-1-C features to the Super synths

UDO Audio Gear Feature Wishlist

Hi! I just saw this video from Superbooth 2025, where George presented RBN-1-C eurorack module with the ribbon controller. And apparently it works differently to the way it works on the Super synths.
Namely,

  1. Ribbon can send gate trigger commands, thus a note is immediately activated once the ribbon is touched
  2. Ribbon tracks 2 fingers, but the first finger plays the pitch and the second finger changes expression

It seems like this specific implementation could be a ribbon mode which would be super-useful addition to all other UDO synths. This would be especially cool for the Super 6 Desktop - if it supported this setup, you could pair it with a ribbon controller and turn it into a standalone instrument. You’d get a super expressive, monophonic, pitchless controller that’s totally unique, and you wouldn’t even need to hook up a regular MIDI keyboard.

Is there anything like this in the plan? Or would it be hard to implement such a ribbon mode in a firmware update?
