hii all
i have several pasterns that are different from one another by sounds , and all the other preferences trigs and so . each one of them is a song for a live gig that i use as base yet i add things to it while playing live

how can i save them that i will be able to call each one of them when i want ? is it possible?
like a song list that will save all the sounds trigs for each song
thanks

You could save your songs each in a bank, and then have 16 patterns split into 4 different parts for each song. Works best for me

Set everything up at a base level. Leave the flourishes/fx/complications at a bare minimum then save as a new Project. Save with correct ‘START’ Tempo/Pattern/Levels/Scenes/Part etc. it’s actually harder than you think, I always forget some little thing

Edit…yeah as Audiotonomy says, best have a Song per Bank, works for me!

thanks for your fast answer

so in this system each bank will have 4 different songs with totally different sounds and so?

That’s one way of working & it makes sense as you have 4 Parts per Bank. So think of it as 4 Kits.
Patterns 1-4 Part 1
Pattern 5-8 Part 2 & so on.
You really have to decide for yourself what works for you though.
Some people want to program evolving Patterns & can easily use a full Bsnk of 16 on one song. That suits the composer approach.
I prefer a skeleton to work with & add things on the fly. So 4 Patterns per Song is plenty for me in this scenerio.

…i’m fighting with show running orders, too…

and i ended up with the basic rule…only TWO differnet tracks per bank…so i got two parts to change the sample and machine and fx and scene settings for each song i have to perform and can choose from 8 different patterns each…gives more headroom for quickchanges without messing up the whole structure each time…
and still leaves you with 32 different song options in total and one row…

also not to be forced to iuse all patterns available at any time is a good thing for keeping thing together in the overview…

whatever you do…just fix some basic rules before you get started and then stick with them no matter what…otherwise you can get lost in action easy as f…k…
