Here's another one:

-Send program change when selecting presets. I'm surprised this is missing
in the first place...

|These features would be nice:
|
|- Snap mode for the knobs.  Not only in Quick Edit, but Volume and Pan too
|(especially Volume please!).
|- The ability to Select more than one track for Erase, Copy, Cut, and
|Paste commands. Even if it's only all of them, maybe in the field where
|you select the track, you could choose the letter "A" to indicated all
|tracks.
|- The ability to XMIX more than one track at once (no idea how to
|implement this).
|- Some way to see the name of currently playing Pattern without stopping
|playback.  Currently you can only see the current location, but not it's
|name.
|- A way to see if Presets are currently being used in a Pattern.
|- Finer tempo resolution!!!!!  :)
|- Press and HOLD the power button for power off, not just 1 press and wait
|5 seconds.
|- More Sysex dump options.  I'd like to see an "ALL" function that sends
|everything in the machine in one pass (regardless of how long this takes),
|good for those people on Macs that want to save their User data but can't
|use E-Loader, for obvious reasons.  Also, an "ALL User Presets" would be
|nice too, much easier than having to wait and switch banks when you're
|trying to save your Presets.  Finally, an "All User Multi's" too.
|- Realtime preview of Transpose, Quantize, etc.
|- All Pattern Edit functions should work without stopping the sequencer
|(hey, it is a wish list!).
|- A way to copy arp data to a track as MIDI notes.
|- The option to turn real-time Filter Resonance on or off.  I for one,
|thought it sounded fine and would like to see this re-added to the OS
|again.
|
|More Shortcut ideas:
|
|- Edit + Track up/down buttons toggles between the 16A and 16B channels.
|For instance, Press EDIT+Track Up would take you to Channel 1B, press them
|again and you go to 1A, etc.
|
|- Edit + Save will automatically perform a Revert To Saved (thus acting
|sort of like an Undo command).
|
|- Edit + Erase will initialize the current Pattern.
|
|- Edit + Audition will toggle the Arp on or off for the currently selected
|Preset on the basic channel.
|
|- When in Loop mode, Pressing Stop + Play should take you to the beginning
|of the Loop, not the beginning of the Pattern.
|
|
|So how about it Aaron?  What do we need to do to help you make this
|happen?  I can't imagine you would be open about telling us you still have
|the ability to make OS improvements if you didn't have something in mind.
|:)  I can guarantee a lot of people would be willing to send some money
|your way to make this happen, name your price :)
