Analogue-sequencer

To summarize and to see if I understand this well:

1. A pattern is a looping sequence of events, maximum 16.

2. A track is the road where the patterns are played, you have a 
maximum of 4, 8, or 16 patterns on one track and you have a maximum of 
8 tracks simultaniously.

3. A playlist is a bunch of pointers to patterns were you can set the 
patternnumber, repeats and transposes for a pattern.
The playlist plays the patterns in a loop. You have a maximum of 8 
playlists for the 8 tracks.

4. A part holds all the playlists for every track. You can chain them 
so you can extend "songbuilding" by not using the tracks simultaniously 
but one after each other (at least that's how I would use it mainly 
:-))

5. A bank can be seen as a song, where all settings for the patterns, 
tracks and playlists  and parts are hold as well as the global 
settings.

So, in a bank (or song as I would call it) you can have a maximum of 16 
different patterns playing with a maximum of 8 playlists (at the same 
time [polyphonic]  or chained [monophonic] or both). Is that correct?

Sorry if this all seems dumb for the rest of the group, but I *really* 
want to understand it 100%.
