Ah, thanks, now I understand the Chg parameter. 👍 Scale doubles/halves/quarters the "tempo" of a track (or the entire pattern) Really, it just makes each step into a 32nd or 64th or an 8th etc.
Just started experimenting with this... I never had since you can't save and it seemed pointless. But great info here-- it was switching patterns without playing all 64 trigs, and now I know to check the chg! Thanks!
you only need to hold one of the sequence buttons down at any given point in the process of programming the sequence... i.e. hold 1 ,press 2, 3, hold 4, release 1 to press 1 again etc...
Thanks for these tutorials man. I just got one, less than a week and I am really liking it. Question, when I copy a pattern will it also copy the sounds that I have assigned to the tracks? Or do I. Have to manually load them up again. ?
According to the manual it doesn't save. It disappears every time you turn it off. It's a huge disadvantage imo. I sequence external synths with it and sometimes want different patterns to extend melodies or have different bass lines for verse and chorus, so many reasons really... and not saving patterns is a huge pain for live performance
If you can’t it pretty much defeats the purpose of pattern chaining imo. Trying to play live and having to set everything up after every song is impossible.
That is correct it affects the amount of triggers used. Each trigger is a step in the measure broken down into 16th notes with 1, 5, 9, and 13 being the 1 2 3 4 of a measure. You can go up and down taking away beats or adding beats to the measure by the number of steps added giving you different time signatures in a sense or just weird effects
I think I've messed around with this to try my own cheat for song mode, using like an italo disco sort of arpeggiated bass line...if you change the resolution (scale) you still have 16 steps per page, regardless, but if you change the scale each step will hang longer before going to the next. For the sort of bass line I was doing I just set each step to retrig--it only repeats the same note and velocity and everything, but depending what you need that can turn one trig into several bass notes. I think you could do 64 "steps" per page this way easily. The hard part is the rhythm is sort of same-y and it gets hard to know where you are in the song. Still working on that.
The patterns will stay on their perspective place. The chain itself I think those not hold up after you switch projects. In the future they might do an update like that. If you make sure to update every new update I'm sure soon they will add that feature
@@daplugdidit Really?? The pattern chains and pattern length change values that you make don't get saved?? That is something straight out of a bad dream... a sequencer that makes you waste enormous amounts of your time and effort redundantly re-inputting all of the pattern structure data for every one of your songs each and every time you power-off the machine!?!? Honestly, that's unthinkable! I just received shipment of Cycles and Samples today and the thought of having to endlessly go through that has me considering reboxing these things and sending them back before I have even plugged them in.. Smh.
The pattern length change value gets save of course. It's part of the pattern data. A pattern chain is simply just when you chain a certain number of patterns in sequence. All you have to do is re touch them. Nd I said when you switch projects. It retains the information when you shut it off. You are not reading that correctly
@@daplugdidit Thank you for clarifying that! I had gotten the impression that this was a "one and done" box. Although not as tedious troublesome, I still can't see why they couldn't have included the ability to save pattern chain data and instead require the user to remember and re-input it? You can save all other pattern data. Why leave out the final need? Thanks again for the info and the helpful vids!

This was great thanks! Was putting off figuring out how to do this for ages but you nailed it.
Just bought one and was trying to figure out how to chain so I could play a live song to different parts. Very helpful thanks.

Easy to follow, simple, concise.
Nicely done, man.
Great! The songmode where thousands of users are asking for!
I'm glad I can help! If you have anything you dont understand and want me to go more in-depth, let me know and I'll make a video covering it for you.

Super Useful! I bought the Model:Samples years ago, super dope machine 🤘🏻
Thanks bro, just what I was looking for
thank you for making this. very helpful!
Dang! That's really nice. Thanks!

Great. Thanks. Le`e
Thanks
Brilliant
Can you save a chain so you could do multiple songs? Or do you have to do this manual programming each time?
I'm wondering the same thing

Hey man. Thanks so much!
I own MS for year, and didn't know it can make pattern change.
BTW do you know how to change patterns with Ableton?
thx dowg
Nice! thanks.
Another Video could be regarding how to use pages :-) and maybe another video with pattern creation and sole example
Thanks !!!!!!!!!
You don't have to hold down Pattern to chain. Just select it then begin selecting your patterns!
Scale looks to say 16 default leading me to believe that changes the amount of steps in the measure.
That is correct it affects the amount of triggers used. Each trigger is a step in the measure broken down into 16th notes with 1, 5, 9, and 13 being the 1 2 3 4 of a measure.

Hello Man - video about to quantize?
Perfect idea. That shall be my next video!! Thanks for your comment
If you turn it off, can these cains be saved so that they are still chained as a project when you turn it on again?
The patterns will stay on their perspective place. The chain itself I think those not hold up after you switch projects. In the future they might do an update like that. If you make sure to update every new update I'm sure soon they will add that feature

@@nodaysback8390 I apologize if I'm leaving out important details. I've been writing without finishing my sentences lately. I should fix that
