Dunno.  I'll take a look later.  For now, you can just assume it's 
magic... =)

It's normal.  Tha pattern plays till the end, loops to the beginning, 
picking up the song at the beginning of the switched out pattern.  For 
example, if your song has Pattern A at bar 1, B at 5 and C at 9, ending at 
13, if you switch into pattern mode at bar 7, pattern B will loop 
indefinitely.  When you switch back to song mode, pattern B will play till 
its loop point, then the song will pick up at BAR 5 (not 9).  This is 
intentional.  If you had linear song track notes, it's presumed that you 
wouldn't want them skipped, so it ensures that they get played.

Neither.  =)  The way that screen works, the pitchbend value field is a 
different one from the controller value field (pitchbend is signed 14-bit, 
controllers are unsigned 7-bit).  Kinda unfortunate, but that's just the 
way this one works.

>>>Oh well.  Can the EMu wizards magically fix this one??  Man, I need to 
stop watching Lord Of The Rings... :) <<<
