MOTM

Then I would *love* to see, when in sequencer mode, the time pots to control
pitch. Hey, why not? :)

And, I would order one ;) Seriously, though, it's a great feature if you
have a separate trigger source such as a TR-606 or MIDI controlled (e.g.
Expressionist); at least *I* like working that way.
