yep!

that would be great! and a arpeggiator that starts arrpeggiating after 
releasing a note! that would be cool! especially in work with a sequencer 
you can do it like this: turn up the release up to eternity; playing three 
notes (maybee multi or only the middle note?); after releasing the keys the 
arp starts to dance. you can altough press the keys for a very short time 
(32st) so it would be a normal arp... ;) just one thought.. thats my problem 
with every synth i got. there should always be more things to control by the 
user and there should be no limits.
but i guess elektron is busy with the machinedrum, so i guess there will be 
no update in the near future. hold on to your dreams! stephan:)
