It would need some extra hardware on the mainboard for that. The CPU only
has a single serial interface.
It's possible at some time I might work out a way to add the extra
circuitry, but not a top priority at the moment.

The Sculpt function allows you to write in values with the DATA knob as the
sequence plays.
You hold the 'note' or 'upper' softkey while tweaking the knob, but if you
just leave it still, the same value will quickly go into all steps.

One solution for that would be a pass-through knob mode, or relative mode.
I haven't been pestered enough to do either of those yet (ducks).

In VU mode, on group shows odd track velocities, the other shows even.
All velocities get added together, and as the result passes different
thresholds, more LEDs light.
Pressing STEP MODE will toggle through some other LED modes, one showing
Gbar beat position, the other showing the countdown to Gbar reset in binary
(easier to follow than it might sound...)

No problem ;-)
