Colin, this reminds me, this doesn't actually seem to work on my P3, holding
the FUNC key in whilst adjusting the tempo acts in exactly the same way as
when not holding it in.

Another strange glitch I've noticed is that the Midi Sync output on my P3
seems to send some kind of start or continue messages when the P3 is not
running, which keep re-starting my MAQ even when it wasn't set to respond to
external midi clocks. I swapped the MAQ to another midi out and it is now
fine.

Also I really would like some way to select a track to edit (or set to
record) that only requires one hand. Whilst improvising, the current method
stops me playing anything else whenever I want to perform any kind of track
based editing, which can be quite annoying. It would be great if something
like FUNC + Play/Edit could be used to set the P3 to await track selection.

Another thing that would be useful if you have it would be some idea how the
FTS quantises notes to the selected scale i.e. whether notes not in the
scale go up or down or whatever.
