Analogue-sequencer

I just wanted to publicly thank Colin for all of the time and energy 
he has invested into the P3. I am coming late to the party having 
just purchased a USED P3 this year for a specific live project.

I was looking for a hardware sequencer and extensively tested every 
hardware MIDI (ANALOG STYLE) sequencer I could get my hands on.

Genoqs Octopus
Schrittmacher
Mobius
The elektron boxes..
Spectralis
and the SND SAM-16

The P3 for the midi side paired up with the SND SAM-16 for the analog 
side in an unbeatable combination for my work...and most importantly 
FUN to use.

One quick question...as I am still learning the in's and out's of the 
P3 ...does the P3 have a "Peek" function like on the Waldorf Q 
series?  For instance, want to see what NOTE a step is at, or what 
BPM the tempo is without touching/turning a knob (changing its value)

Thanks!

When editing a pattern, Func and a step key reveals that step's value. 
To discover the tempo you can go to the page containing stored tempo 
(page 6 IIRC from the main screen) and hit F3 which will store (and 
therefore display) the tempo for that bank. Hit F3 again to unstore it.

FUNCTION + Step button shows you parameters for that step
(step #, note, Vel, Length, Delay)
or if editing aux's it'll show which aux type & it's value (upper row)

tempo shows when you hit run
or you can use function + tempo knob for fine tempo control, then it won't
be jumpy

And yes, many thanks to Colin!
:D
