I am loving the arpeggiator on the MPc you can make all kinds of trippy sounds BUT, I am upset that even though the manual says that it also works on percussion sounds as well, I still have not been able to arpeggiate anything else other than synth programs.

Has anyone being successful at arpegiating percussion, that would be dope. Specially if you were on 16 level pitch and it would give you the different pitches of that sample as an arpeggio. DOPE.

The Arp works on sample programs but not when 16 level is turned on it appears....
