I don't think it "squishes" them into one track, the pattern track 
assignments still hold.  The song mode is just telling your XX-7 what 
order to play the patterns in, unless I'm mistaken.  The song track is 
there incase you want to overdub knob movements throughout the song, add 
tempo changes, etc.  Only downside is that with a single track, editing a 
bad pass on a single channel can be tedious.

[Byron] ah, I understand now...I hadn't realized that it wouldn't 
're-associate' the patterns external channel settings to correlate with 
the song for live overdubbing and playing....and no, I DID NOT read the 
manual, I apologize, but I usually save that as a last resort in better 
hopes of instinct taking over (and working)...I was expecting it to break 
the pattern up onto seperate tracx automatically, not squish them onto 
one, but it's all becoming quite clear :))
