On the Blo's large screen you of course could select from many patterns and also user patterns and actually is shy of being a full-on sequencer...certainly easier and less of headache to set-up that on my Virus KC.

With that said, have learned using the DAW as work around for both Virus and Blofeld is simply faster, if anything else. The Blo has it's multi-mode and arp entwined very tightly to where one could easily summize they are one and the same. I actually like the arp set-up on Blo much better than Virus but apples to oranges when it comes to 'menu-diving', as it just becomes intuitive with practice, of which I need more of and will.

Side-note: unloading the Korg Radias because although has a great user interface and it REALLY *could be* a great-er synth, if it simply did not want to sound so damn ~~HAPPY~~ ALL the time .
My Elektron Analog Four just arrived... I am *never* sleeping again!!!
