Copy/Paste Pattern workaround.....?

[FreeBot777]

Thank you much! I’ll check it out. There seems to be a workaround for everything in this little box.

Yes. No alarm clock or timer, but you can do it with OT.

What do you mean no alarm clock timer?

Throw in a long silent sample with alarm at the end on a static track, adjust start point accordingly!
2gb 16bit mono file gets you 6.29881582263 hours of timer, just about enough sleep. Start points increment in units of 2.95256991686 minutes, more accurate with slices…

So wait, what are the differences between copy paste on OT vs A4?

[Open_Mike]

Yeah, analogs can paste without leaving the current pattern…

After a pattern is selected, and before releasing any key, [REC], [PLAY] and [STOP] can be pressed to copy, clear or paste patterns without leaving the active pattern. It is possible to clear and paste multiple patterns at the same time.

6.3 hours of sleep isn’t nearly enough (current research is look ting to 8 being a bit less than we should be getting, actually) but I’m sure you could sort out a few hours of padding using trig conditions or the arranger.

In that case set rate to about 40, make sure timestretch is turned on

Workaround:

Copy paste patterns without stopping the sequence

Just to make it brief - if the link seemed convoluted: Set master length to 16 but track lengths to 64, then there are three pages on each track that you can work on without affecting audio. Paste them into page 1 when you want to hear them. It’s one track at a time just because you can’t paste on all tracks - but ‘develop’, sure further: “Paste” again at any point to perform an instant undo - i.e… back to original page 1 pattern - good for fills dropped in anywhere ie. this is also the on…

[Open_Mike]

Yes!

Dog is my copilot, OT is my alarm clock.

I don’t understand. I copy pattern 1 and paste to pattern 3, it flashes ‘paste pattern’, like its OK… but there’s nothing on the new trig… what gives ???

If possible give me a simple step by step command list of what to do… I followed the Manual Page 12.8.1 —it should work, but doesn’t. Tried it 10 times already.

In Grid Recording Mode (LED on) you copy/paste the active track, not in Grid Recording Mode (LED off) you copy/paste the pattern.

[Function] + [Rec] = Copy
[Function] + [Stop] = Paste

[Function] + [Play] = Clear
Press again to undo.

[weepwow]

will try thanks.

[weepwow]

ok

[sezare56]

The circle is lit red on Copy

This mean you’re in Grid Recording mode. You can’t use the patterrn copy in that mode.
Press the red rec button to exit.

Thanks Sez, works.

How do I add additional samples to a folder I am already working with in a project?I have about 7 samples in a folder I created for the project, with 121 Slots still open. Cant figure out the best way to access them without going to System-USB Drive-Computer, and adding them there. Or is that the only way I can do it? Or can I just go to another Audio Folder somewhere else on the C Flash card and access it? I dont know how to do that… appreciate any suggestions for the quickest way.

Overall, I am starting to understand the OT better than I thought after a few weeks, but obviously hitting a few snags here and there.

Yes you can load any sample contained in the active SET folder. Select a slot and navigate with arrows…

Awesome, Thanks Sez, I was working backwards. Works perfectly!
