Now that you’ve got your audio samples, loops, MIDI data, and patterns in the MOTIF, here’s where the fun really begins. The Pattern Chain feature lets you arrange all of the pieces of your song in real time. As you record a Pattern Chain, play back your original patterns and sections, and switch among them on the fly. This intuitive, hands-on approach to arranging lets you come up with great ideas and amazing songs — quickly and easily.
