hi kids,

djees! can't a guy even go trash some mountains for a week without 
major changes happening? ;)

um....i've got 19 P3-data SysEx dumps at the moment, of which 13 
contain very different material, and four of which are currently Work-
In-Progress, with several tracks scheduled for release..and i'd 
really hate to have to lose my older stuff. as i mentioned before 
i've never used the PXpos-function as yet so for me the 
whole 'extended range' thing isn't neccesary. so if you're going to 
change the dump-format i'd really really appreciate the update script.
on the subject of scripts 'n' stuff; how much work would it be to 
write the editor-utility you've mentioned before, and what would 
possible programming languages be? i.e. could a flash-app. be written 
for this purpose? because i'm starting to really want this, if only 
to be able to move banks around between '(SysEx-dump)sets' without 
having to re-program the whole bank. that would basically be the main 
function of the app. for me, as all other P3-editting is definitely 
done best in the P3 itself. if it can be done in Flash or Javascript 
i could probably write it myself without too much trouble. other 
languages i could probably get a hang of pretty quickly but i'd need 
some help and it would obviously take longer.
about the new OS & Events; i like 'em! i'm really chuffed to finally 
have track-mute-access from the playlist!! the Events are pretty neat 
too; got some weird stuff going on here :) just to be clear; the N 
in 'grab note from track N' is an internal P3 track, right? would it 
be possible to 'grab' a note from an incoming Midi-channel? i ask 
this as it seems my second P3 is coming close and i'd love to be able 
to combine them using these funky new events :)
also, i mentioned a 'momentary' softkey/combo before, which i've kind 
of re-thought. what i'd like this softkey/combo to do is toggle the 
(active steps of the) AUX-tracks per track to ON, OFF, and preferably 
a kind of ON WHILE HELD as well. i don't know if it's at all possible 
but i think it'd be a really cool performance feature...and as it 
happens i've got a couple of gigs coming up soon ;)
