Hi all

I did my first recording a gig last week with the P3 and it
stood up fine. I used it simply but the results sounded
complex... and I managed to use it in a free improvisation
conext with some really great musicians without appearing
like a twat - great.

I'm having a more leasurely look at the guts of it and its
pretty much melting my brain again - its the first proper
sequencer of this kind I've had so my hands, eyes and brain
all need to learn some new things. One feature I like are
the pattern direction modes and I especially the random and
brownian modes. I would love it if there were more
possibilties or modes that I could use on the fly. I know
that I will get into a lot more ways of randomizing patterns
I get to grips with the auxes - but I wonder if there are
other easy to use randomising algorhythms that could be
added - moving around the pattern jumping two and then three
steps and then four steps each time, stepping forwards and
backwards in smaller increments, different ways of changing
direction - 50% randomisation???

And who the heck is Brown anyway? Didf he have other tricks
up his sleeve?

and why are accumulators called accumulators? - I don't
quite get it...

Richard
