Select multiple channels independently with the "sel" button (0xtob/#34) #55

the "sel" button on pattern screen would select/deselect track on which the cursor is positioned (dunno if your bloc system would allow this with "track gap" tho, if not maybe it could aggregate the selection on tracks between the first and last selected tracks without gap).

Selecting the FULL LENGTH of a channel would be good. Having to drag the stylus all the way down is a workload hitch. Especially when the song is playing and you are moving patterns-clips around to see what works where. For example, if I got a synth lead in 01 and I want to see if it works in 07. Usually, I'll hold the stylus down while the song plays to sort of LAZY SELECT all but it's a bit of a timing game to do that. Having to do it manually can be a little annoying.

Current option (not very ergonomic, but viable): Start holding at the top, press R+DOWN (which immediately transports you to the bottom).
