Quantised track record of 128 steps?

i have a pattern set to length of 64/64 at half speed, so it’s effectively 64 steps long as far as the track recorder is concerned.

the track record RLEN only goes up to 64, then MAX.

i thought i could use QREC, but that’s only to start recording.

i’ve done lots of track recordings (via trigs) of 64 step long patterns, but i’m stumped as to how i can do …

thanks!

I think the qrec affects the end of recording as well. So you could set length to max and manually stop the recording quantized to the value of your choice to get a recording of 128 steps if that makes sense.

Chain two patterns and live rec?

nice one - this seems to work, although i’m getting a click, which is annoying, as it’s a pad sound
i have done a ton of live looping of the SRC/MAIN with a RLEN set to 64 steps, but this time it’s AB that I am recording
