"ZIGZAG" sample playback type
ZigZag playback type for samples-- it would play forward then backward (or vice versa) with numerous options for linkage to other parameters (in diagram)

AUTO-POPULATE KIT FROM FOLDER
It would be a great time saver if you could make a kit from a folder -- even better if it could organize kicks, snares, hats, crashes and toms in order (according to standard midi)

Context Based Shortcuts & High Visibility Overlay
One of the main advantages of the Deluge is it's compactness, but it can also be difficult to see the shortcut menu in low-light conditions (as many musicians operate under).
Assuming many of the requested functions are added to the firmware, you're going to run out of shortcuts on the first "level". Additionally, the white text on black background of the menu overlay limits the options for effectively color-coding it (red text on black = invisible).
One idea would be to break the sound editor down into different "sections" that would correspond to a particular color on the overlay, and each "section" would open a different range of shortcuts (like menu diving, but easier).
There's about 4 millimeters of usable area between each pad. -
Song Mode - Sections Palette to draw on the grid
MY thoughts on song mode:
-
Deluge is perfect for Jungle
not precisely jungle, but jungle adjacent. call it "jungle proxima"
-
3RD OSCILLATOR

Song Mode - Sections Palette to draw on the grid
With a horizontal layout of song sections (instead of the current vertical) the "tails" of effects and notes could continue because the pattern isn't muted-- it's just stopped playing.
