Change sequence from 2 to 8 bars...

As eimer said, use the copy function to populate the tracks with further notes. from the first 2 bars.

There are a few other things you *could* do, but this is probably the most straightforward to learn.

Don't be afraid to play around and try things either... there is a lot to learn with this little monster and not all of the things are immediately intuitive if you don't know how everything works under the hood.

maybe?


Thats how I always do it.
The copy function is so awkward and confusing that its as useless as the qlink slider imo.

Practice man, the copy feature is worth it :).

The qlink slider is pretty poorly implemented. It's there, it does do a few things, but I wouldn't miss it too much if it were gone.
