so when you're not clearing patterns by mistake, you're clearing all tracks'
MIDI trigs? ;-)

"---" just means there's no note trigged on that step. it's typically
only seen in trigless steps (i.e. parameter tweaks only) and note-off
messages. it can be accessed by pressing FUNCTION+STEP; which will turn
the step LED to yellow as well. but this will only "---" a single step
on a single track.  I don't know how the hell you "---"ed all trigs
on all tracks.  even a pattern clear won't do this (it will wipe the trigs
out entirely).  if there were a melody clear then maybe this would happen;
but that would still only be on one track...

anyway, it sounds like a bug (or some feature I'm not aware of either).
if it occurs again, try to document what you did to make it happen and
report it to Elektron.
