>From the demos I saw, I was lead to beleive that you could set it up
so that whichever 16 pads you currently had visible would *always* be
assigned to the 16 pads.  in this way, you didnt have to always put
the sounds on the same exact pads, because it used a link between the
controller and the current selection rather than note number to assign
the pads.

if you watch the ableton live 7 demo video, you will see what I am getting at:
