And to discombabidalutaed or whatever: there is currently pattern clone. When selecting patterns, keep holding then hit copy/paste.

holy shit youre right . it does work .
yayyyy!!!

Software

Polyphonic 4 note chords are crucial

Do the LFOs not sync to your host? I assumed they would.

Channel effects - especially reverb and delay much desired. Really should be able to put different reverb and delay settings on different channels - would make it much more powerful

Hardware

Midi Out really should be there as the sequencer is one of the main things appealing about this machine

Multiple outs should definitely have been included - especially given the fx are only sends not channel.

Better screen 8 bit games consoles look better

unitl this i found a little free VST plugin that does this :
midiPolyphony
http://www.thepiz.org/plugins/?p=pizmidi
"For spreading polyphony across MIDI channels, i.e. if you play 4 notes, each one will go to a different channel. Polyphony per channel can be set from 1 to 16 notes for more flexibility. You can also use it to convert polyphonic input to monophonic output."


There is also the Midipal (in Dispatcher mode)

(not tested... I have not yet received my a4)

Nice! Thanks. Let us know if it works well - it's the main thing holding me back from getting it

+1 for a duophonic mode (similar to the ARP odyssey) where you can detune the oscs via the keyboard

+1 for per track scale multiplier

+1 for midi out of the sequencer tracks and especially the CV track. even just sending notes would allow those that don't have CV gear to get some use from the CV track

send/receive NRPN for the transpose amount when transposing tracks

send/receive program change

a "super clear" mode similar to the MNM (hold func + play). also would be nice to have the option to clear p-locks for a single encoder only, something like hold func + play to display super clear menu, then select "clear single lock" option, then click the desired encoder and the p-locks for that encoder would be cleared for the active track.

1 channel external MIDI sequencing from FX or CV track...so many new analog with MIDI and CV out there! it´s a crime to sacrify 2 CV out to send 1v/oct and gate when you can do it with MIDI

arpeggiator options in the perf mod slots !

+ 1

and i wish the arp parameters could be p-lockable as well !

Man, all I want is pattern naming (or a "notes" type function!) to record the appropriate BPM for a pattern!

And ability to parameter lock transpose in a pattern.
