Well, the reason I want twelve button is that there are twelve half  
tone steps on an octave :-)

These days almost all my looping activities incorporate pitch  
transposing. So, maybe I should have wished for fourteen buttons  
then? But if the "Bank Change" button is virtual and can be addressed  
by MIDI we may use all twelve physical buttons to play music with.
