RE: [xl7] next wish for OS 2.0 - another wish

WELL of course when you put together something this good and we pretty HAVE to
improve it ;)  No seriously you have done an amazing job of adding stuff in,
Props to Aaron!!  We will prolly put all manner of crazy stuff on our soon to be
new and improved wishlist (Can you believe us or what?!)

IMHO there are a couple of things that would really speed up grid record: 1) If
your display is set to display bar or the cursor is under current bar, turning
the knobs or hitting a part key wouldn't move the cursor from bar.  I know this
is inconsistant with the current editing behavior of the cursors and the dial
but imagine just one turn of the knob after the current bar to edit the next
bar???  Can you picture it??  And they said you couldn't achieve perfection!!!

2)The other niggly wiggly (other than an undo?) is that the velocities of the
default channel buttons in step record are the last used velocity from the
knobs.  I can deal with that except that if I am doing a lot of entry then
whenever I adjust a velocity I have to also reset the velocity for the next step
I enter - I think defaulting this to 110 or something might be usefull since you
can easily edit each of the steps now with the knobs (BRILLIANT feature by the
way! Heh...;) very nice)  An option maybe would be good?

Once again I have say I am impressed with the results, and now you offer some
serious sequencing power that the other machines will find very hard to compete
with.

Where do I send the beer?
