Thank you - I've been enjoying a very similar 'advanced split' function 
since the day (literally) that macro programming became available.

I love the K3's macro functions, but this is a shared K3 and we often 
have guest operators too, so I hate the proliferation of tacky little 
printed labels on the K3's front panel.

What we're now discussing is the logical next step: an option to move 
that personalized 'advanced split' function back onto the SPLIT button 
where it belongs.

For ongoing reference:

* The feature request under discussion is for config options to make the 
SPLIT (hold A>B), (tap REV) and (hold REV) buttons available as 
additional user programmable macro keys.

* The reason for requesting this enhancement as a config option is to 
avoid any impact upon users who prefer the existing SPLIT and REV 
behavior (and hopefully to avoid tank tracks on the front lawn :-)
