Halt Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Yeah, How Can I make a beat longer, and multiple beats by adding more then one pattern and having them play as one? Because. I have a basic beat, but I want to add to it. But I don't know any ways too, and the FL guide hasn't helped me much. Also on another note: I'm having trouble sequencing loops into a simple beat, any tips? Quote
Zephyr Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Top left of step sequencer, LCD for "beats per bar of this pattern". Make it as long as you like. Or you can send your sequencing to piano roll and make it as long as you like. OR you could go to the playlist and clone that pattern then make variations. Quote
Halt Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Yes. Make variations, Thats what I was looking for. But, how to make all thoes patterns coincide with one another into a song of some sort? Quote
Zephyr Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 ? Are you not using the Playlist? You draw in the patterns into the playlist, if you have more than one then you play them one after another in the playlist using pattern blocks. I don't know what exactly you're confused about... Quote

Thats exactly what I was thinking. Just forgot to clone is what I did. So, yeah. ;] Thanks much. Quote
Halt Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Failed. I Cloned and such and the second pattern never plays. Why is that? Quote
Zephyr Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 *Sigh* You aren't using the playlist! Hit F5, that thing that pops up is the playlist, you organize the song and patterns in there! Click with the pencil tool in the horizontal row of the first pattern at the left side of that row. Now do the same with the second pattern and line it up with just after where the first block ends. Now make sure the light in the transport bar is "Song" and hit play. For editing patterns change the pattern selector LCD to the number you want. Quote
