see you need to just have inferior keyboard skills. then you, like me,
won't have this note-length issue :-)

I think it's very important and I think that they should implement it.
but I don't know if they will. I think that a lot of the problem is
trying to find a simple, accurate and intuitive way to display the
sequenced data within the interface. that is, without mucking up the
simplicity of it.

I DO think that the MnM is an incredibly powerful step sequencer.
given its nature, ease of use and intuitive interface, it's very
powerful and useful. and I'm quite happy with it as is. but giving it
full polyphonic capabilities would make it a thousand times better. 

in fact, one of my "I hope they make it" synth items is an Elektron
dedicated sequencer with the MnM/MD interface and full polyphonic
capabilities (well, and the ability to record any incoming MIDI
information).
