I know it's not *exactly* what you want, but you can use a footswitch for it - XL-7 has two FS inputs and they can be programmed to work as Start/Stop buttons (amongst others possibilities).

Hi there,
I'm looking for something ";Casio-CTK-style" - a synchro-start, if you don't mind. I can definitely send a MIDI "Start/Play" from the keyboard controller, but that's not what is actually wanted.
So: is it possible to trigger pattern/song playback upon receiving the first note (first MIDI event maybe) from an external MIDI controller/keyboard?
I know a similar trick is available for recording (count-in to zero and CS waits for the first incoming event to start recording...).
