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

Actually there IS a way to this with the XX-7s.

What you do is, use the arps and latched triggers.

User arp patterns can be any length you like, you can even edit them while they are playing for some Genoqs type action.

Make your arp patterns, assign them to presets on the relevant channels and set up latched triggers (in the Controllers section) to start / stop them. It's actually one of the first things mentioned in the manual IIRC.

One limitation here I suppose is that arp patterns are monophonic but you could get around this with multiple channels if you had to.
