P3 does come empty. It's not some Romahorg Groovebox, providing you 
with1000 patterns of preset 'inspiration' ;-)
I may load over-writable default patterns at some point, to go with
tutorials. Check out the getting started guide:
http://www.p3sequencer.com/p3-getting-started.txt
and Paul Nagle's P3UserGuide.pdf in the Yahoo files section:

sequencer/files/P3UserGuide.pdf
(watch for wrap)
Don't be afraid to ask questions.

Cheers,
