Hi rEalm, 
I checked for that.. I transfered the pattern over using E Loader and 
opened it up in cubase where i could see what was going on better. 
There mainly short notes to trigger drum samples (16ths)
A few tracks have longer notes but not longer than the end of the 
pattern.
They go over the 8 bars for triggering arps. I did knock off a few 
ticks too a few measures to check that.
Maybe i should try and trigger arps on every bar and not over the 
whole 8 bars.
Also ive had problems with the arps not syncing with the tempo when 
changing between patterns, dont know if theres a clue there?
The others are on every bar and dont spill over into the next (i 
shorted these events as well..)
The other thing is that if its going to play up it will do it from 
off so its not accumaltive of a peroid of cycing of bars.
I think the assign parameter is most likely the key and getting the 
voice alication sorted out for esch preset.
Strangely enough assigning the kick layer to its own group cured that 
dropping out, but another instument on the 2nd layer still would drop 
out even though i had assigned it to its own group.
Also theres some other artifacts going on. when the 2nd layer drops 
out the kick drum dosent drop out but the sound changes. either 
sounding for longer or the like.
At the end of the day you proberly wouldnt notice that in a mix but 
its there and shouldnt do it.
Having said all this l'll will check all the note data again just in 
case ive missed something.
I want to keep using this box, its a much better user interface than 
the MPC :o) for the way i like to work.
Cheers for having a think on it, i appreciate your input.
Regards

Gonz
