Ok, this is great info... but I can't seem to be able figure out how to
assign the Hold pedal to the arpeggiaton itself. Maybe not possible? Have
to use the ARP/SEQ button on the keyboard?

Right, that's what I'm trying to do, find a way to cut off the ARP/SEQ
without taking my hands off the keys (actually the guit-synth for this
application) hmm... may have to use a foot controller to fade the scene out.
(at work now, no manual or synth to experiment on... will post results
later).
