Re: [xl7] Arps ans midi channel routing..

2005-01-08 by Greg Waltzer

An arp only operates on one midi channel.
You can have 32 arps because there are 32 midi channels (16 each on A 
and B).

You couldn't have more than one arp on a single midi channel, because 
each arp would try
to process all the notes on that channel.
