Is there a way to set up loop points on one individual track while other tracks play thru the sequence?

Hi everyone,
pretty new to The Tracker and tracker’s in general and this method of music creation really hits the spot for me. It’s easy to have the Tracker do the things i would struggle to try and do on other devices and I love it.

Anyway, my question is in the title- can you set up a loop of defined notes/length in a single track while the rest of the tracks play thru the macro sequence?

This would be really cool to use in a performance. Speaking of performing I am familiar with the loop/repeat function that lives on the performance window, which is great, but what I am imagining would take place on the record/play screen and allow a user to set exact start and stop points as marked by the user with a play length specific to a user’s whims. Greedily, it would be really cool if more than one track could be looped, independent of each other and independent of the macro sequence length.

lastly- somewhat related- can an individual track be set to an alternative tempo to the other tracks? I love that Tempo is an FX to be placed at any given point within a sequence - love it- is there a way to make polyrhythms ?

thank you!

Euclidean rhythms… I don’t think so. There was a feature request for a hop function - like on the M8. Check if it made the votes required.

@ianlary Polyrhythms are done by the micro move effect.
You can do everything with it per track and pattern.

Different tempi per track are not really polyrhythm and euclidian rhythms are a different thing.
Those can be generated with the fill function.

As @paul-8189 said, there is a very popular fr for tracker style loop functions here

Looping on parts of a pattern

Looping on a selectable set of steps in the pattern view would be awesome. What is the problem? The preview of selected steps only plays once while you sometimes might want to loop a section when you micro edit a pattern. For example, when finetuning the last 16th steps of 128 steps pattern, you edit some steps so you loose your selection, so you have to select again to get a single play of it. What do you want to achieve? Looping on a selection could be really useful when focusing on small se…

Jump to pattern FX - creating Song Mode/ Pattern Mode loop regions

Loop regions are very handy for live performance, What is the problem? The tracker doesn’t have a way to loop multiple patterns in song mode. Very handy feature with live performance. Could pair well with bouncing between song and performance screens. What do you want to achieve? Having a Jump command to bounce between song patterns in song mode. For example you have a command that jumps to pattern 3 on the 5th pattern and this will continually loop between 3 and 5 untill you select pattern 6 …
