Good suggestions.  I'll offer a third:

Make a copy of your pattern into a new pattern (save to new location, ideally old location + 1)
When you're ready to transition, switch to that pattern, then switch to the next.

You could even make a pattern that specifically transitions from A to B (i.e. A, AB, B).

Fourth suggestion:
XMix -- bring in the parts individually.

Two ideas
 
1.  Suppose you have an 8 measure pattern.   You want a smooth pattern playing on all the 8 measures with NO bridge/transition at the measure eight.
 
a. Go to the function "extend length", and duplicate the length of the pattern, from 8 to 16.
 
b. Go to the measure 16, you know, erase the kick, add a reverse cymbal or a percussion bridge transition.    SAVE IT
 
c. Go now to pattern length.  Change it again from 16 to 8. SAVE IT
 
d. Now you have again the same smooth loop of 8 measures, but when you want to make a transition to other pattern, go to pattern length screen and change it to 16.   In this way, the pattern will go now from 1 to 16, not to 1 to 8, and then, the transition you recorded at bar 16, will make its job. 
 
 
2. Create a multimode A or B track, that can have notes, or tweaks.    REcord the transition in that track. 
 
It won't have effect, until you activate it.  GREAT feature
 
 
I create a multi

Subject: [xl7] share some ideas on transtions

  

Hello guys,
Can anyone share some ideas on how you do transitions or breaks between patterns/songs in live mode???
Also is there a way to define some general transitions( drum or synth transitions) ???
Thanks
