P3 is primarily a live performance instrument.
There are intentionally only limited facilities to prearrange a track, with
the emphasis placed instead on creating the parts of a track from groups of
patterns. Then you perform your track by manually selecting these different
parts, muting and un-muting patterns, editing patterns on the fly, or using
the knobs to dynamically modify patterns using effects pre-assigned to the
knobs in each pattern.

If you like, you can arrange the parts of a track in a logical progression,
and use part repeat counts with all parts chained to create a prearranged
track, but that doesn't seem like much fun ;-)

I don't use my sampler much at all, never really got into it, but I don't
treat it any differently from a synth.
Except with loops maybe, but you can set up a pattern with a single tied
note for the length the pattern, that could trigger a loop in time with the
rest of your patterns.
