What is the problem?
Patterns are max. 128 steps long.
What do you want to achieve?
Achieve higher resolution by using high speeds ( >400BPM) and pattern length 256 or 512.
Are there any workarounds?
Use more patterns, but it’s more unnecessary work with shorter patterns.
Any links to related discussions?
Couldn’t find.
Any references to other products?
desktop trackers: up to 512 steps

Hi @dsp , thanks for you contribution but unfortunately this is not possible due to technical limitations.

What you need is a Synthstrom Deluge, it doesn’t have any limit on the number of steps and bpm up to 26624.
I get out my Tracker and Play when I see something new to try but my Deluge always goes back on the desk after a day or so because it’s so versatile and can achieve all that the other instruments can do and more.
I can transfer the resultant sounds from the Deluge onto the Tracker or Play once I have ironed out any wrinkles.

Thanks for recommendation, but what I wanted was just longer patterns in portable tracker. Guess, I’ll have to deal with this limitation.

yes, and this is exactly why a feature like this would come in handy:
A:B conditions for playing steps on the Tracker.
What is the problem?
Missing more control of chance effects.
What do you want to achieve?
We have chance fx and random fx, but it would be nice to have control over how many times a step plays after each sequencer pass or how many times an fx is triggered. For example, a snare plays 1 out of every two passes, or on the 3rd pass a roll is triggered.
Are there any workarounds?
Making multiple patterns.
Any links to related discussions?
Any ref…
…as some kind of compromise.
