Maybe this is well known?
Is there a way execute playback for the whole measure of a Section instead of it getting interrupted if I press another Section key too early?

i.e. say section A is 8 measures long, I want this to play entirely after I press section B and not have to wait until measure 7 before going to another section?

Thanks!

I’m not aware of a way to do this, other than chaining a few together.  I do like your suggestion though; the ability to simply press several sections at once and have them play through that way, rather than waiting to the last measure in each section to press the next section.

You’re not the first to ask about this. Here’s a thread concerning the MO, from over eight years ago:

Everyone offers the chain feature as a solution to this question… But the chain feature makes you lose ALL the flexibility of patterns in a live performance.  If you wanted to “record the song in a set order” you would just use song mode from the start… Right???

I do understand the purpose of the chaining feature and that it allows you to teatime record “punch-in” sections of the song into a linear recording… Which is great.  But it doesn’t really help people that want to use the pattern sequencer in a live setting.

did you ever figure out how to change sections on the fly and play to the end without using pattern chain .....
