Does anyone know how to change the length of a pattern in ProTracker? It defaults to 64, but I would be surprised if there weren't a way to vary that. Nick

It depends on the tracker program.. I don't think Protracker will change the length, why would you want to? (Unless you are NOT doing a 4/4 time piece) Try MED for pattern length changing, but I like PT much better

Having 64 slots is a huge influence on the kind of music people will make with a tracker program. Everything's in 4/4. Also, unless you could change the length, it's not possible to subdivide the pulse into anything except eighths, 16th, 32nds. No triplets, quintuplets, etc… Anyway, the reason I'm using ProTracker is that it's the only one that will save modules that SCALA can play back properly. Nick
