Re: [analogue-sequencer] random limiters

"The 'note rng' settings allow you to set the base note and range covered by
the NOTE knobs when you are editing a pattern.
These are stored separately for each track.
How about a user config option that allows the note range for input to also
be enforced as a limit for randomised and accumulated notes ?"

could be a good work around - it certainly makes sense to do this on a track by track basis - of course it may be confusing if I forget it and wonder why the accumaltors aren't doing what I expect

  Thinking about this, there is a relatively simple solution for note limiting
  that wouldn't take too much code space.
  The 'note rng' settings allow you to set the base note and range covered by
  the NOTE knobs when you are editing a pattern.
  These are stored separately for each track.
  How about a user config option that allows the note range for input to also
  be enforced as a limit for randomised and accumulated notes ?
  It would probably need a little finer control over the span than at present,
  but that wouldn't be too hard.

  It's on the possible TBI list, but there are other things before it that are
  higher priority use of code space.
