That is one of my favorite tricks with the xl-7. You record an 
arpegio type pattern into the sequencer then turn on the arpegiator 
in the patch. By playing around with arpegiator pattern and note 
lengths you can get some really neat sounding stuff. Controling 
arpegio speed from a knob (thank you to whoever thought of this cord) 
lets you add variations and energy where needed.
