Waldorf Micro Q Arpeggiator Question

Hi - I'm thinking of buying a Micro-Q. I just need it to have a specific feature which doesn't seem to be detailed in the manual.

I need the arpeggiator to key-sync - i.e the arp only starts 'pulsing' when i actually hit the key, allowing me to play an arpeggio in time to a live band.

In other VAs this is called 'key-sync' - it might be something different on the Q, or maybe the Q does this by default.

Does anyone know??

I think it's standard on all Qs... There some issues in some models syncing arrp. to a sequencer but you also can easly get around it by adjusting global settings...

Thanks,
Peter

Ummmm....what exactly are these issues with the MicroQ arp syncing to a sequencer. I'm also thinking about getting one of these and I heard about how powerful the arp is on this unit and that it might be more reliable than my Nord Lead 2s' "softsync" arp. Does the MicroQ hard sync to a sequencer bpm-wise?
