If you're in XMIX mode and use the Trigger select button to jump back to 
the current pattern's MUTE status to mute a track, you should be able to 
assign a new part to that Track, and NOT have the Mute status remain when 
you leave XMIX mode. 

Example, you want to swap the BD (bass drum) Track (we'll say it's Track 1 
for this example) in Pattern 001 with the BD Track (Track 1 again) in 
Pattern 002.  So you enter XMIX mode, and then decide you want to mute the 
current BD before you bring in the new one.  So you press the Trigger 
Select button, and now the Triggers reflect the MUTE status of Pattern 001 
again (still in XMIX mode though).  You mute Track 1, press Trigger Select 
again to go back to XMIX mode, then at the right moment swap Pattern 001's 
Track 1 with Pattern 002's Track 1.  All is well so far, the new BD begins 
playing and you're off and running.  However, as soon as you press play to 
leave XMIX mode, Track 1 suddenly goes muted again.

Obviously there's quite a few work arounds in the example above, but Iv'e 
kept it simple for explainations sake.  If you start XMIXing a lot of 
parts, many times you want to mute and unmute other parts while doing 
this, in order to keep the set from being too static for too long.  I 
don't how many times I've left XMIX mode and suddenly I'm missing parts 
that suddenly get muted.  Just an idea if by any chance we ever see an 
OS2.01.

Also, I still have problems (OS BUG) when selecting the Note symbol in 
Replace Record mode.  Everytime I select it, the cursor jumps to the 
Quantize field and I mess up my quantize settings.

Ha ! Realm, Sincultura ....Thank you boys ! I'm no longer feeling 
alone on this subject !! ...On my side I would like to see some 
function (much like temporary loop) that would let us select 'on the 
fly' parts to be transposed in a track ! Of course this would work 
with REAL-TIME TRANSPOSITION which is IMHO one of the features that 
lacks the most on this machine....These two added functions would let 
us do so much more on the machine itself instead of spending hours in 
Cubase , Sonar etc...When I see every little japanese toys doing this 
(REAL-TIME TRANSPOSITION) in  a breeze , I just can't understand why 
my E-MU doesn't !!!
P.S : Realm I like your last tune very much ! Not too dark for 
me...Only listened to 2 others of your songs until now (void shaper 
and frozen clouds if I remember well ) but this one is by far the one 
I prefer !
