send arps to midi a or b.... which are played from da virus... all over all
I programm patterns which are looped... isn\ufffdt it the same?

the transpose buttons....

question one?????

well.... while one pattern is playin you can search for da next one... the
old one playes to da end and than it switch to the new one....
all over all the xl-7 is the best live machine I have ever played... ( also
own before the Yamaha RM1x and the Rolan MC-80)... maybe the rs7000 is also
good, but I don\ufffdt like yamha with thousands of little menues.... .... and
also you say u use an akai sampler... so why the rs7000? also good are the
16 programmable knobs... real great while youre live actin....
