Re: [xl7] Re: erase track??

The Song Mode track (I think Emu calls it the conductor track) can use up 
to 999 measures if I remember correctly, so you should be fine on that 
count.  As for track counts, you need to think of it like this.  The Song 
Mode of the XX-7's really is intended to use Patterns for the majority of 
the sequencing, and as you know those have up to 32 MIDI channels 
available on 16 MIDI tracks.  In addition, Song Mode also has ONE 16 
channel track that can be used to record sequences that are independant of 
the Pattern data, or things like controller moves that go the length of 
the song (poor man's automation).

But, there's nothing you can do to get 16 tracks in song mode without 
using a Pattern.  If you remember that Tracks and Channels are completely 
seperate entities, then this isn't really a problem since that ONE song 
track has 16 MIDI channels you can use to sequence data.  Just set the 
Track destination to MultiA in the Song Edit menu, and now you can use all 
16 channels to record data.
