yes it has it. there's a MIDI channel dedicated to just the multitrig.
there's also a MIDI auto channel which routes incoming MIDI data to
whichever the active track is.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by a lot of different patterns.  The
arpeggiator is programmable in the following ways: along with choosing
how it should be activated, you can choose the speed and octave length
and you can set the step length as well as offsets for each step.
This can be set by each track, of course.  Hope that helps!

Don't know... I have played one.  But they seem like different beasts
entirely; i.e. asking if one is replaceable by the other is probably
not applicable.
