How do, Does it loop in pattern mode like this? If you have a 4 bar part in the piano roll, Fruity should play it in it's entirety in pattern mode... within each pattern itself, you can't mix the bar lengths without undesirable looping of other parts if they are shorter... Try this as an example: have a look at the "3xOsc fun" song under Cool Stuff and select pattern 2 - the duda-sn3 and duda-strpad are 4 bars in length and loop correctly in pattern mode. Look at the playlist and see that pattern 1 (1 bar) is triggered every bar whereas pattern 2 (4 bars) is triggered on bars 9 & 13... Apologies for the slightly clumsy explanation, if you were sitting next to me, we could rattle this out in seconds! However: Any clearer?

Just make sure you enter the patterns correctly on the song playlist (i.e., beat on 1 & 3 - 5 & 7, melody on 1 & 5)..." What is the procedure to change length? You just have to put notes over the bar 2.00.00? Is this enough? I think not because, even when I do that, it loops at that point..... ______________________________________________ Rui Barata Parts Quality Tel. +351 241 899 800 - Fax. +351 241 899 872 E-mail: rui.barata@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.mitsubishi-trucks-eu.com ______________________________________________
