I just got my MOX6 and am struggling with a few things (BTW the Voices are awesome - try putting them through a Leslie Speaker).
I am a seasoned keyboard player but workstations are kind of new to me
I can make a performance with no problem, but I want the drums to end and START with the foot switch.  When I enable the arp with the foot switch, the drums don’t start until I hit a key and stop when I turn off arp.  If I turn off the key feature it wont start with the foot switch.
Thanks for any help
I hope someone comes out with a good tutorial for the MOX

I know this may sound strange, but the nature of an arpeggio on a keyboard, requires that you hit the keys. You must trigger them with the keys to start the arpeggio.

If you want to playback a drum groove simply record the Drum arpeggio to the sequencer. By recording the drums to a track of the sequencer, will allow you to start and stop them with a FOOT SWITCH. You can COPY the other PARTS of your PERFORMANCE to the same MIXING setup in the sequencer and play them as you were in PERFORMANCE mode.

Thanks Bad_Mister, Your replies in this forum have helped me a lot.  They should have hired you to write the manual.

Or rather, have him make a tutorial DVD set. I guess they’ll sell like hot cakes.

The irony is that whenever, if ever, there is a MOX tutorial available it will sell like hot cakes even if it is as bad as the material that comes with the MOX.
