I received a Tracker Mini for Xmas yesterday (Oh what a splendid gift!). I am still new to the device and electronic music production as a whole. I have been a self taught flute player for about 15 years now and I was hoping to be able to create tracks using recordings of my flutes as part of them, however the maximum number of steps in a pattern isn’t long enough to accommodate some of my songs.
I have found a sort of work around by loading several instruments with the same sample of a song, then slicing it into even pieces and having each instrument play a single slice on the first track of each pattern. Although this works, there is still minor clipping/cuts between patterns, and the workflow is tedious.
Is there a way to mod the mini to have a pattern length that is significantly longer than 128 or for me to be able to load a long sample and have the whole thing play through so that I can layer other sounds over it?
Thank you in advance and may you have a Beautiful day!
