Under Amp it says Arp in grey, but if you hit Function + Amp, it goes to the Amp Setup page. What does Arp mean? (I thought it must mean arpeggiator?)
Thanks
Correct.
@Baddcr, IF it had been available on audio tracks as well: how would you have been using it?
(being a guitarist has its shortcomings sometimes)
As a MnM owner, I use a lot of arps for beats using either the BBox or hand made snare/hihats. Since the MnM doesn’t have individual track lenghts, it is a workaround for shorter sequences (like 4 steps only) in a several bars patterns, that can be accessed and modified easily whatever bar is actually playing.
Once you get used to that “trick” and enjoy all the other possible things that can be done with Elektron arpeggiators (wich can be used as up to 16 steps sequencers for melodic tracks for example), it’s slightly disappointing to realize the OT doesn’t have arps for the audio tracks when you load single cycle waveforms or drum hits.
Of course OT has individual track lenghts and tempo dividers that reduce the need for the short sequence trick with the arp, but there are still a few tricks/habits that Elektron fans would have liked to be able to apply to the audio tracks.
The self-midi in/out trick is a possible solution if you use the OT as a standalone, but not in a multi midi machines setup 
Thanks for explaining!
Even that it somewhat sounds a bit similar in your description, I´m guessing that the LFO Designer doesn´t cover the lack of arpeggiator in all situations. What would you consider the biggest differencies that is in advantage of a arpeggiator if it existed?
I think an arpeggiator set to target slices would be pretty fun, lots of possibilities and easier to work with than the LFO designer.
…that this is not long done, must mean it’s impossible to guarantee it would work fluently…
but no doubt…it would be a weapon of it’s own…
hell yeah…what a pity…
Correct.

It would obviously have to be possible to target it to different parameters, a bit like you can use LFO’s at the moment, for example target the sample slot: each step plays a different sample, 128 sample slots, 128 gradations on each ARP step - crumbs! More sensibly, a set of say 7 or 8 samples of the same instrument at different pitches would make for perfectly serviceable ARP fodder 
Another example, target the pitch so it works in the same way as chromatic mode.
I guess there are any number of ways it could be used and essentially these are in some ways possible with the LFO programmer, but obviously not the sample slot idea. Make sense? Any good? Any possibility of it becoming a reality?[/quote]

Maybe it would be taxing the CPU a bit too much or something. I´m unfortunately not involved on that level.
Brilliant idea - I can see very clearly how I’d could use this feature with trappish tempo multiplier changes. I should look into this with LFOs.
“Even that it somewhat sounds a bit similar in your description, I´m guessing that the LFO Designer doesn´t cover the lack of arpeggiator in all situations. What would you consider the biggest differencies that is in advantage of a arpeggiator if it existed?”
An arpeggiator has steps. LFOs don’t. You cannot have silent gaps in a LFO “sequence” (unless you modulate the volume with a second LFO), and you cannot set it to a number of step (although you could accelerate it).
Fun fact about the Arp: if you shorten a sequence, it remembers the “hidden” steps. You can safely play with the lengh of the sequence and achieve nice polyrythms or build ups
