next question: how do i do that while enabling the "mute hold" function? 
i'm guessing that i can emulate a "tap" press (and release) before (and 
after) the second command...

  F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 07 21 xx yy F7	// choose next pattern
  F0 18 0F dd 55 40 20 bb bb 01 F7	// "tap" press
  F0 18 0F dd 55 01 02 04 21 xx yy F7	// confirm next pattern
  F0 18 0F dd 55 40 20 bb bb 00 F7	// "tap" release

i'll have to experiment with that, and find which values of "bb" 
correspond to the tap button... if anyone (aaron?) has any answers i'm all 
ears...

better yet, is there a way to enable the "mute hold" as a default 
behavior?

also, is there a way to save some bytes by using some sort of "running 
status" within the sysex? that should save almost 50% of the data. or does 
each command have to have it's own "F0 18 0F dd 55 ... F7"?

thanks!!
