hey,

is it possible to (easily) break up a long (64bars) sequence into 1bar song steps
so it becomes a 64 step song instead?

(convert to seq opposite)


the sequence is 64 bars from sliced and sequenced, maybe I should do it differently in the first place (not slice to sequence)

Only way I can think of is to chop it up.(autochop) You know first beat detect then region it and chop) And have each part be its own sample. Seems like a strange question considering one would have it broken out in sequences before putting it together as a song.

I don't recall a single button that reverses song to sequence.
...meant from" sequence many little sequences."

Other than that I know you can shorten or lengthen the mount of bars(measures) in a sequence and just keep saving and saving.

Cheers,
Ian

I must have been typing wayyyyy too fast because that is a major type mistake on my end. I know that you can convert a song to sequence. I thought for some reason you were talking about doing the reverse....going from a long song that has many sequences back to a sequence.

sorry for the confusion. I convert songs to sequences all the time. lol even made a video about it.

Cheers
Ian

PS I am going to have to edit that sentence out.
