ah- no, this was suggested as an alternative way of entering the notes. 
you'd only use the other pattern (in an adjacent track) temporarily to 
enter the partials, then copy them across into the auxes of y'r main 
chord pattern & recycle the other pattern/track afterwards.
of no use live, this last, but might make life easier in preparing such 
sequences off-line, as it were.

so I'd record my roots into track 8/pattern 1 as regular notes, then 
immediately arm track 7/pattern one to record the first lot of 
partials. I'd then copy these notes into aux A on track 8/pattern 1. 
then I'd re-use track 7 /pattern 1 for either the next lot of partials 
or something else on a different channel if the chords were complete.

for anyone having trouble getting the chords to go in right (because of 
wobbly laying technique or whatever), this might have an advantage. I 
also think it would be a good way to build up polyphonic percussion 
parts- a drum at a time, & in their own patterns until you're happy 
with them- before combining them into a single track for playback & 
further modification using the auxes.

what?

duncan.
