I tried the current method for playing in drum patterns and it's ace.
As I would typically only have three drums being hit at once, I found
it possible to get entire patterns into P3 tracks very easily. It's
probably still cool to keep kicks and maybe hi hats separate but
layering other percussion works well. And it never really seems to
matter which note is "root". 

The first time I knocked in some three note chords then had an
accumulator mangling note release time I started to get quite excited.
Seriously, I think this is gonna be a killer feature - and it's
something I initially didn't get too excited about when Colin
mentioned it. Of course I can remember when entering notes via MIDI
didn't seem too exciting and now I use it all the time!
