when it comes to knob twiddling, *that* is not a sequencer's job. the
knobs on a sequencer should do sequencer things. but you are correct,
sending CCs *as part of a sequence* is part of a sequencer's job, and the
P3 does that. but one of the tradeoffs in its nature as a step sequencer
is that those CCs are only sent on each step, rather than the smooth
sweeps you can do in other sequencers. i haven't found that to be a
problem for me though...
bleep.
