first of all, has anyone noticed how when you turn on the arpeggiator 
for a particular track, that if you want to have those same settings 
for it in a different pattern in a song with that same kit you have 
to reprogram the whole arpeggiator. It seems that arpeggiator 
settings are linked to patterns not kits. Is there a way to paste 
arpeggiator settings, or have the option to have them connected to 
the kit instead? 

Also does anybody like how kits are linked to patterns? I for one am 
not too partial to method this because sometimes ill load a pattern  
and have to reload the original kit for it because i had a different 
kit loaded. then sometimes you load a song and you'll have that 
different kit in there, making sometimes a nice little change up. not 
nice if you dont want it to be there, though. I wish there was some 
way that you could just have songs, then just load whatever kit you 
want and have the monomachine stay in that kit, and not go to 
whatever kit you programmed the pattern in ala MachineDrum. That way 
you could have more control over your songs, changing it up as you go 
along. ...or not. which brings me to next point:

I mean i guess the current way of doing things can be ok, but i wish 
there was some way to have some control over the way things
(patterns, arpeggiators, kits, songs, etc.) are linked and associated 
to each to each other. You should have the option to have the same 
arpeggiator settings for a track in a kit, always be there, or have 
them change with the patterns. the point is having the option.

maybe you can do these things and i just dont know diddly about it. 
Maybe im missing the point of MnM altogher(maybe ill get it when 
Elektron puts out their presets), but I just thought id say something 
about it.
What do yall think about this particular aspect of the Monomachine?
Im interested to see if anyone else feels this way or not. 

peace,
ZEBRA
