Thanks. I had already seen that trick. For a true SUS command, however, I 
think it should also work until you release the button in case you want to 
hold it longer. Hence, you could program a quantized, single unit replace 
which works in the most common way for using SUS commands, but it isn't 
really a SUS command.

But now, if only the Q steps setting could be set as part of the 
programming on a MIDI button (and for that matter if Scramble obeyed Q 
steps).
