Two MIDI outs

[blepe]

I've always been curious why Sequential chose to put two MIDI outs on the Pro 3. (Not including USB of course.) Anyone know the thinking behind it, or make use of both ports?

The built in P3 sequencer is super capable...  with 16 tracks X 16 steps X 4 phrases... likely decided on two MIDI Outs just to give users extra options for sequencing outboard gear.  (along with the CVs)   You can set the destination of any given track to either MIDI port, with a variety of output options.
