here's a trick other people  are probably using, make a 32 step pattern,
then imagine it divided into 8 equal 4-step sections Use the song
editor to create:

ABCD
ABCE
ABCF
ABCG
ABCH

Similarly, you can make, say, 8 different sidsta notes in the first 8 steps
of a pattern, then play this pack (steps)
1,10-16
2,10-16
1,10-16
3,10-16
1,10-16
2,10-16
1,10-16
3,10-16

this works for me because my first step is usually just a kick or
kick+ch anyway.  

is there a copy range for the song editor?  it's starting to get to the
point where that would be useful!  n.e.way, can't wait to install the
new 1.1 os with mute sequencing....wicked.
