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

Maybe this isn't an OS request per se, but mor of a clarification.  When I'm
in song mode, I'm constantly going in and out of edit mode (step and
realtime) - Many times, I'll switch between the two modes, and then turn off
the sequencer to do some tweaking.  Then I'll play the sing (from where I
stop) and it actually just loops the pattern instead of going to the next
step in the song.  Sometimes I get frustrated, stopping the sequencer, and
going back to 01.01.001...  THen I have to fast forward to where I was.  It
would be cool if you could easily punch in and out of record mode in song
mode.   I find myself playing the song and going "OH I need to change that"
and spinning the dial back 2 measures, doing a step edit and maybe a
realtime edit, and then returning to my "listening" mode.

Any thoughts?

Yeah, I brought this up a few weeks ago too, it's designed that way 
according to Aaron.  Here's a quote:

It's normal. Tha pattern plays till the end, loops to the beginning,
picking up the song at the beginning of the switched out pattern. For
example, if your song has Pattern A at bar 1, B at 5 and C at 9, ending
at 13, if you switch into pattern mode at bar 7, pattern B will loop
indefinitely. When you switch back to song mode, pattern B will play
till its loop point, then the song will pick up at BAR 5 (not 9). This
is intentional. If you had linear song track notes, it's presumed that
you wouldn't want them skipped, so it ensures that they get played."
