Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Thank yo for clearing this up, Aaron.
One thing I do not understand from the manual:
The max for any arp pattern is 32 steps (page 206). Each (!) step can 
be played (repeated) from one to 32 times (page 208). Does it mean an 
arp pattern can contain up to 1024 notes?
2. If I want to program cords I need to program - say - for example 
six different arps to be played together? Sounds rather time 
consuming. Is there an easier way?
