I am a piano/synth player and there are so many times when I want to build an 8 bar pattern with the proper resolution for quantization so I can record/showcase my playing/solo skills and not have everything sound quite so repetitive. So many synths/sequencers always feel like they are limited in this respect. I have a Roland JD-Xi and that thing is a beast… it’s one fatal flaw… they half assed the sequencer. I really love my first couple of weeks with this machine but would truly be in love if I could have 8 bars. Please TE! Anyone else need/want this?

It would be nice to have. Even though I do need quantise quite a lot due to lack of piano/keyboard skills.
The 120 note limit per pattern might be the reason they’ve not implemented this.

It is possible to record/quantize 8 or more bars using track scaling. Do you think it covers your needs? Anyway quantization/live recording using track scaling 3 or 6 with time signature of 3/4 or 6/8 is buggy.

Frankenleg- I heard what you’re saying, but it doesn’t quite make sense for your use case. To show off your playing skills you’ll want to turn off quantize. So by using the track scaling you can get to 8 bars, 16 bars or more.
Ya, I get that, but there are fast so many times I do chord progressions that are 8 bars long. For example c,g,f,f_c,g,a,f. I just typically think of a verse as a pattern. I get that I can do two patterns with the same result, but now I’m doing two scenes for one verse just seems unnecessarily complicated with as much memory as this machine has.
