Re: [xl7] Changing patterns "on the fly"

2010-12-27 by James Ulibarri

matt & atom,

you guys rock.   i love how the CS will queue up the next pattern trigger by flashing and let it FINISH it's bars before kicking in the next one.   that's soo doepfer schaltwerk, tr-606, and SP1200.  i have had other machines (RS7000, MC-303, electribes, etc) that abruptly go into the next track with out letting it finish it's cycle.  god i hated that as it was so unmusical and annoying.  this is so tits now.

==================

there are >1000 patterns, and only 16 trigger buttons to select them.
but... there are 60+ multi-setups... IIRC each of the multi-setups can
store 16 triggers independently.

there's also pattern changes via sysex -

and probably not what you want, but you can assign a pair of foot pedals
to increment/decrement pattern numbers.

i think that (and the data knob) is a complete list of how to change
patterns. if there's anything missing, i hope someone will post it.
