BTW, I have a few more modes, discovered by accident when I
built the CV interface for the CS-50. A top note which
will *not* jump to lower values unless all keys are released
can be very useful for certain things.

You mentioned the high note priority of the Pro2 but then follow up 
with your special modes. If it was actually high note priority, why 
would it jump to lower values? How do they differ? Maybe I'm not 
reading you correctly.

Wasn't JH talking about the ability to run mono synth lines on top of 
poly synth lines from the same kbd?

If you are playing a top line melody and holding chords lower, you 
would not want the mono high note priority to jump to the previous 
note in the stack when you release it, as long as you have those left 
hand chord notes still down.

On the other hand, true classic low note priority ALWAYS plays the 
lowest note held down on the keyboard at any time. This seems to act 
differently than last note priority in some cases. I notice the 
difference most often when I am playing fast lines, and I nudge the 
wrong key slightly. I end up with no note playing. Seems like the 
last note played/revert to note stack algo can get confused more 
easily than the play-lowest-no-matter-what algo.

I'm not necessarily speaking specifically about the Expressionist, 
BTW. I notice this problem the worst on my Chroma's mono keyboard 
modes. Even supposedly High or Low priority algos can  get fooled 
into playing nothing, even when keys are held down.

But since I have your ear Tony, and we are talking about key assign 
modes <insert big grin>, how's my circular assign and other key 
assign modes coming on the new Expressionist update?

LOL!
