[A6] mix mode

[Andrew Eaton]

I sort of answered my own question just after writing this, but it
seems like an unfriendly answer:

setting several voices to mono and to use the same program, triggered
from different midi channels.

If you have two monophonic programs set to the same mix voice, for instance, you won't be able to play the two sounds simultaneously because they'll be competing for the same voice.  The same applies (more so!) to sequences and arpeggios.

MUCH patience is required!  And, in general, I've found that trying to use multiple sequences simultaneously in mix mode is one of the best ways to get the A6 to hang/crash (even worse if you're trying to use the sustain pedal on sequences), so keep that issue in mind, too ...
