The P3 is actually the first time I've come across middle-C-as-C5.  
When I was doing most of my gear buying the consensus was 50-50  
between C3 and C4. (Max/MSP has two options for showing its numerical  
objects as MIDI notes: "MIDI Note Names" and "Note Names C4".)

Having said that, C5 works for me, since it makes the mental  
arithmetic easier (especially when doing other MIDI hacking): C0  
means 0, none of those messy negatives.
