..i was thinking more along the lines of being able to edit another 
part's track-mute status..personally i've never used PXPos so far, 
and i'm quite happy with the accessibility of the GBar setting as-is.

hm....that would indeed be pretty neat..

same here...
something else about playlist-edit; i've noticed that when turning 
the pot for the number of repeats for the current playlist step the 
playlist starts from the first repeat of that step again. personally 
i'd much prefer to have any added repeats 'tagged on' to the current  
repeat of the step. for instance when playlist-step 1, which is set 
to 3 repeats, is playing the programmed patttern for the second time, 
and i turn the top pot to 5 repeats, i'd like the playlist to just 
continue on with the third repeat of the pattern and then add the 
extra 2 whereas at the moment it starts back from the first after 
each turn of the knob. 
another thing; i hardly ever use the 'transpose' knob in playlist-
edit, but i do find myself copying patterns and leaving them exactly 
the same, except for the direction. if at all possible i'd really 
like the lower pot to be user-configurable for either transpose or 
direction..or maybe a pot+FUNC combination? as i wouldn't want to 
lose the transpose altogether
finally i'd like to join Paul in stating that the P3 is the coolest 
sequencer on the planet. the only thing i can imagine beating it any 
time soon is 2 P3's. :)
