If I add a 'pattern select' event, you'd be able to do that with a control
track.
You would have a pattern on one track redirecting its auxes to another,
doing randomised pattern select events, with a random mask on that event to
control the repeats. Could be interesting...
Remote control pattern selection is already TBI.
I've been sidetracked with some other things, so haven't got the finished
yet.
BTW the next build will have a nice new 'flat' character. When you select an
FTS root, you can choose enharmonic equivalents for the black notes, and all
note names are then shown the same way. IIRC you were one of the people that
wanted that Duncan.
