All the time. As long as I keep saving the kit often, and don't switch
patterns it works ok though.

Nopes, a lot of the behaviour still seems to quite random to me. 

This happened two days ago. I was making some music on one pattern,
and all of a sudden the MnM locks up, high pitched sound going out
from the MnM. I restart the MnM, play the pattern again. Total lock
up. Again. Tried some more times. The same result. Restarted it again,
switched pattern to another one, hit play. Worked ok. Went back to the
pattern that crashed before, hit play again. The pattern played
without any trouble.

It is a bug, but I cannot figure out how to write a good bug report on
that one. Perhaps what I wrote above, but reproducing it? No. :(

We should all do what Roonan said, hand in those bugreports anyway,
and hope that Elektron will find patterns in them.
