Problem with that is that I like to activate multiple steps at the same
time.
For instance, if I go into a blank pattern that I want all steps on,
I'll press the lower 8 keys together then the upper 8 keys together.
It would be a pain to have to press each key individually to prevent
them getting tied together.
Potentially I could make it a secondary function of FUNC+step keys - so
that if you press FUNC+ a single step key, it shows you the step data as
normal, but if while holding FUNC and the first step key you press
another step key, it ties all the steps between.
The problem with that would be the need for three hands if you want to
tie the whole bar together (hold FUNC + step 1 + step 16)

Cheers,
