Hey guys!!
How can I loop the 2nd measure in a 3 measure pattern while it is 
playing in grid mode?  

I guess i'm spoiled with soft synth methods but is there a way to
copy measure 2 of a 3 bar pattern and extend the pattern to 6 bars
and pasting it on bar 6?  

How are some of you creating your patterns?  i.e., are you working
with a small number of bars and then use the extend sequencer and 
extend bar feature to build your pattern lengh that way or do you 
find it easier to work with a lengthy bar and then fill in the 
middle?

Any reply is greatly appreciated!

Peace in the Middle East!

I usaly start with a small loop and extend it the whay I need to from 
there.  I find it alot easier than starting with a big loop, less 
waiting around for the loop to come around.  

peace

Mike.
