Re: [xl7] more than 32 bars?

Easier would be to just set your time signature to 8/4 (or 16/4 or 32/4 or 64/4 or 96/4!)

PS. you can load patterns longer than 32 measures, but you might not be able to get to them (other than playing them)
PPS. you also can't *record* sysex, though you can embed it with an external sequencer

===============

i haven't tried this, and i might not need to... but i'm curious if it 
will work... if anyone tries it please report back here...

using the sysex messages i posted to change patterns, can you record those 
messages into a pattern and have two (or more) patterns loop themselves?
