Odd. I'll check the latest fw build on mine and see if it does the same
thing.

The tempo knob is scaled to suit the tempo range I use most.
Between the range of 120 to 150 bpm, it actually steps 0.5 bpm per step,
although you can't see this on the display. Towards the little used
extremities, the steps get bigger, as you noticed.
The scaling is held in a lookup table for the 16 bit timer values and
numeric tempo value, so it could be changed easily, but there are only 128
possible tempo settings.
I might be able to produce a firmware patch with an alternative 'nosebleed'
tempo map ;-)
Or if there was a general consensus that less resolution was acceptable at
the extreme ends of the scale, I could adjust the map to extend the 'fine'
region over a larger area.

I could add a block type to support 'general config' settings. It's missing
more due to lack fo time than any other reason. I guess it would be useful
to include the midi channel settings and user config in a dump.
