From 1-bar pattern to 4-bar pattern (HELP)

Post by lqlwle »

I created a 1-bar pattern. I don't know why, but when I increase the amount of bars it repeats the 1-bar pattern on bar 1 and 3, but not on bar 2 and 4. So basically it plays my pattern on bar 1, stays quiet on bar 2, plays it again on bar 3 and stays quiet again on bar 4.

Well however that happened, but I have no idea how to fix that without losing the whole thing.

I tried already:

- If I shorten it and extend it again, it stays like that...
- If I shorten it to 1 bar and copy it like that to another Patternslot, it stays also like this
- it seems, there is also no way to copy a part from one bar to the other?

So how the hell do I fix this? I want to have a seemless playing 4-bar pattern. O.o Please help!

Thanks in advance!

Try to delete bar 2-4 (clear all notes + all automation) and set the length to 4 bars again. This should help. Yeah, a feature like "copy one bar to an other bar" is necessary.

Wow that actually did the trick!

How I did it:
Went to bar 2, switched to the sequencer, switched off every note, next pad, switched off every note, next pad ... and so on until all notes of all pads in bar 2-4 were switched off.

Then I saved the pattern.
Reduced the length to 1 bar.
saved it.
Increased the length to 4 bars again. (The electribe now copied the first bar to all bars!)
saved it.

(i dont know about the savings, whether its necessary, but i just did it)

But yeah that is kinda NOT self explanatory O.o
Besides that some more Bar-management would be really nice! But like this it is at least not utterly broken anymore.

Thanks alot

Seems a strange phenomenon

I wonder if you somehow created a two bar loop with one bar silent, and copied it?

Good luck
