if you want to have an external controller to easily emulate the TRK - all trick (changing all track pitch , loop settings etc)
just set all tracks to same midi channel , on the controller set the same midi channel with the relevant parameter.
very easy to make all tracks bit crush , pan , delay etc
and saves needing to setup 8 x knobs to do each track .
good for a quick performance controller layout.
still no way to trigger pattern reload via external controller though … maybe one day.
this could probably work on all/most gear too if its being sequenced internally.
it does a few weird things though…
