Inspiration
I’ve used Blender for over four years on professional projects, and I’ve often hit the point where a keyboard and mouse alone feel limiting for fast, repetitive tasks. My workflow usually bounces between a few core workspaces—3D Modeling, UV Unwrapping, Animation—and I’m constantly switching back and forth between them. This addon is meant to smooth out exactly that part of the 3D pipeline by giving each of those workspaces its own focused set of controls.
What it does
The addon lets you perform tasks and execute shortcuts or macros faster inside Blender. The top row on the MX Creative Keypad holds three workspace buttons that switch both the MX console and Blender’s context, so the remaining buttons and dials always provide contextual controls that adapt to the workspace you’re in.

What's next for BlendBoost
This tool is primarily designed for 3D generalists who already use Blender daily—artists who regularly jump between modeling, UVs, shading, and animation as part of their pipeline. It ships with three core workspaces to start, and over time the plan is to add more (Sculpting, Shading, Grease Pencil, etc.), each with its own set of actions and dial behaviors tailored to that part of the workflow.
