Yeah, as I mentioned in my other post, this sort of stopping drives me nuts.


Also, as I've said, try Xmix.  Since you can save and switch patterns while playing (make sure you save your edits before editing the next!), you can easily set up a duplicate sequence then use Xmix to pull in interesting tracks in realtime.  Give it a shot, you might like the flexibility!


Also, another interesting thing is to save your sequence to a new location while playing.  This automatically puts you in the new sequence without stopping or resyncing to the beginning or anything.  You can make a variation then switch between in realtime.  Also, you could then record those changes in song mode too...

Subject: RM1x - Re: [xl7] Re: XL7, compared to...



When I first got the Rm1x and we were jamming with friends, I would 

start banging some grooves, and the others got on and the jam starts 

rolling, and then I'd have to say: OK folks, please hold it, I gotta 

record that.  It was really frustrating :)). The XL7 sequencer is 

much more immediate and fun.

Since I got the XL7, I got a bunch of loops made in an easy, free-

flowing way - start sequencer, record something, move on to the next 

track; don't like what you did - erase and repeat. The main problem 

with stuff made this way is that it doesn't go anywhere - all 

variation is limited to muting/unmuting tracks.
