As Paul mentioned, midi can't do this without some jiggery pokery using
pitchbend. The problem with pitchbend of course is that you get a
different range on every synth, so you'd need to have a tuning table for
each synth that converted midi notes into combinations of a midi note
and just the right amount of pitch-bend.
Adding pitch-bend to the midi stream will use bandwidth too.
My Microwave had a nice built-in microtuning, that sensed what key a
chord was in, and 'fixed' it up. Nice.

The definition of 'main' might vary from user to user, but roughly...
Arepeggio capture lets you create patterns like on a synth arepggiator.
There are two new user config options:
'Lock btempo' disables the tempo knob if a bank tempo is set
'Start on cont' makes P3 treat a midi continue as a midi start
Various new aux events were added:
'set norm tbase', 'set trplt tbase', 'mute trk n', 'mute trk, dAcc>n',
'unmute trk n', 'send midi pgm', 'send midi a/t', 'send midi pbend',
'select part', 'set pchain length', 'set lstep abs' and 'set lstep rel'.
Plus there are test events for note repeats, with note and velocity
offsets, but these are still to be polished a bit.
And the accumulator defeat events.
I will update the manual with details of the new events soon.
But fvck me, I've been busy...
