Good point - that won't really work with the current selection method.

Let me think:
- MIDI reroute (all incoming MIDI is rerouted to channel X)
- Copy Pattern (all tracks)
- Mute all/none/stored
- Solo track/off
- Mixer mode toggle (not that I ever needed that one, but hey...)

... and of course in play mode (as I already mentioned)
Instead of
- Sculpt (note/upper/tap)
have:
- Sculpt Note (all, active, tap)
- Sculpt Upper (all, active, tap)
  plus an option to invert, e.g. FUNC-F2 means sculpt inactive steps

Randomize should have a similar option, e.g. to only randomize active 
steps. Maybe FUNC-F1? (but then you'd probably want to use the same 
mechanics for Sculpt, but have F2 invert the step selection)

Additional issues independent from the above:

Sculpt: Why don't I see the sculpt value immediately? Especially for 
slow patterns it's hit and miss when I try to set a specified value 
(e.g., I only see the current data value once I hit the next step)

Signed value entry: As an engineer, I understand why the current 
implementation starts at 0 - 63 and then wraps-around to -64, yet I find 
it counter-intuitive from a user's point of view. How about having 0 on 
the top/center with a small dead-zone to enable quick selection of 0?

Enough for tonight - I'm sure I'll get some more ideas... ;-)
