With this talk of logic and sync problems earlier... I just want some computer software to multitrack on to. Thats my primary concern. I like the interface of the latter versions of cubase (sx and the like) but most of these type of things will only act as a sync master when usin

Colin, would it be possible to also offer the OS (and betas) in the more general .mid standard midi file format? None of my hw sequencers can handle the .syx format, but all of them read .mid files, and I hate using computers for that. Is there a specific reason for the .syx form

Hi all, I've placed the P3 along with other synths on the same MIDI bus. Now when I put the P3 is real-time record mode, I'd only like it to record incoming notes that are addressed to the P3's own MIDI channel, much like I want a synth only to produce a sound when I send it MIDI

Folks, Another P3 beta is in Yahoo files now - v3.1.006b6 Sorry if I'm working too hard ;-) This build follows an upgrade to a new release of the sdcc compiler, which reduces the total code size by a small but useful amount. Compiler updates can sometimes make problems appear in
