I just got mine yesterday and I love it. Down to the font in the manual.
OK how about this firmware upgrade:
Let's assign the midi channel per pattern, not per track.
1. Hold down shift and see the midi channels for the patterns where normally the pattern numbers are displayed.
2. Continue to hold down shift and change the midi channel for a pattern with the arrow buttons.
This would take the KSP to the next level. I hope it can be done with the available hardware.
Thanks,
