Two ideas

1.  Suppose you have an 8 measure pattern.   You want a smooth pattern playing on all the 8 measures with NO bridge/transition at the measure eight.

a. Go to the function "extend length", and duplicate the length of the pattern, from 8 to 16.

b. Go to the measure 16, you know, erase the kick, add a reverse cymbal or a percussion bridge transition.    SAVE IT

c. Go now to pattern length.  Change it again from 16 to 8. SAVE IT

d. Now you have again the same smooth loop of 8 measures, but when you want to make a transition to other pattern, go to pattern length screen and change it to 16.   In this way, the pattern will go now from 1 to 16, not to 1 to 8, and then, the transition you recorded at bar 16, will make its job. 


2. Create a multimode A or B track, that can have notes, or tweaks.    REcord the transition in that track. 

It won't have effect, until you activate it.  GREAT feature


I create a multi

Subject: [xl7] share some ideas on transtions

  

Hello guys,
Can anyone share some ideas on how you do transitions or breaks between patterns/songs in live mode???
Also is there a way to define some general transitions( drum or synth transitions) ???
Thanks
