Okay, I think I see what you're asking - correct me if I'm wrong: To
assign the FS to a MIDI CC other than the default (#64 Sus Sw) use the
Ctrl Device and Ctrl No under the UTILITY/SETUP menu. You could use FC
instead FS with a 2nd foot pedal connected (this would be my
preference.) I've poured over the Data List and cannot identify the
correct MIDI CC number for the ARP/SEQ Hold function. I ∗think∗ it may
be MIDI CC #90 when the AN1x is set to Mode 2. Double check page 9 of
the Data List and let me know what you think it should be. I've not
tried this first hand.

I think MIDI CC #90 (in Mode 2) acts as an on/off switch instead of
using the ARPEGGIO/SEQ button on the front panel - not for the ARP/SEQ
Hold function.
