Hi,

First of all, thanks Colin for your response to my Qs -- I appreciate  
it!

Just to throw in my opinion, I would actually consider the ability to  
transpose tracks individually to be near the top of my list of  
priorities for an analog-style-sequencer (actually, this was actually  
what I was trying to ask, but I wrote "parts" instead of "tracks").  
On the Doepfer MAQ I really love being able to transpose each row  
individually -- So for example I could have row1 doing something  
melodic, while rows2/3 are handling something weird/percussive... I  
want to be able to transpose the melodic part without affecting the  
rhythmic sequences. Or maybe I have 3 melodic tracks, and I want to  
try transposing track 1 up a semitone, while at the same time  
transposing tracks2+3 down a semitone,...etc...

I'm going to be selling my Doepfer to finance this P3, and that is a  
feature I will miss. Anyway, I find it quite amazing just the fact  
that we are able to interact/make suggestions to you at all, Colin, &  
I understand that this feature may not be a priority for you and most  
other users, but personally I would happily sacrifice many other p3  
features in order to accommodate this.

thx, Jason
