Im checking out the jj os2 and its nice, but I only see 3 layers instead of 4 with the program layers. Has the layers been reduced to 3??

per pad layers has been reduced to 3 in favor of having ADSR for pitch, filter, and amplitude.

but this doesn't matter, because you still have simult - which of course means that you can have up to 12 layers if you want (though this would be exceedingly rare, as it would be at least 1/3rd of your polyphony.

personally, i'd have been happy to have the number of total layers reduced to 2 or even 1 if it meant more PROGRAM-level control. PAD LAYER is the poor man's simult anyway

yeah, i had to do this, too. but even if i use pad-layers often i hardly used all four slots. mostly two or three.
