Analogue-sequencer

>>I was wondering how much value there is in being able to set up
different auxes on each bar in a pattern.<<

I'm inclined towards suggesting that the aux config should apply to
the entire contents of a track, in both v4 & v3. 

I'm back using v3 now, because we're doing a lot of stuff that's
pre-arranged.... 
& the thing that slows me down the most is having to set up the auxes
for each pattern in each track. I tend to do the same things with the
auxes all the time: 
some polyphonic stuff, some repeat-trills, some knob-grab so that I
can use the unused knobs in mixer-mode to change the velocity &/or
length of notes in a pattern. 
in fact, while I'm on the subject, it takes two auxes to direct one of
the knobs to a midi CC, which is a nuisance. I know I've said before
that users should treat the p3 as a sequencer first, & use a separate
midi controller for such tweakage, but I have changed my mind since
starting to use mixer mode.

anyway.

if there was a bit of user-memory left over to do it, I'd suggest
allowing the save/recall of aux configs on an additional page in the
aux setup process. one would save/recall the setting for all four
auxes & then edit/contextualise them; for my money, this would be
quicker than doing it from scratch each time. 

my workaround for this is to use otherwise empty patterns to copy aux
configs from. this is obviously not a terribly efficient use of the
p3's memory...
