'tis a shame, then, that the arpeggio interval stuff is broken. (See
the bug database.) This really needs to be fixed in the next OS
update.

My XL-7 isn't here right now, but: can't you use the assignment panel
in the middle to attach the data entry wheel to track/channel
selection?

It's on the back: it's a USB *client* socket, not a host socket. (USB
is stupid this way; Firewire isn't.)

I've got a bit of cruft with the track/channel up/down buttons but I'm
assuming they'll ride up with wear. Or ride down, or something.
