A pad has a sound assigned. It is also used to create a pattern. Subsequent to recording, the sound is played in the sequence according to the pattern. The pattern is correlated with a pad (within the programming on the BIOS/System Software). This is why, when you change a sound, the pattern stays the same because the machine assigns the pattern you play to the pad, leaving the variable (which sound) up to you.
As such, my question was, is there a method for the machine to allow you to decide what pattern goes with what pad.
I am very appreciative of the help I received. I am not appreciative of snide remarks that you peddle such as "dickk, u arent thinking are you, try to concentrate on what you are doing, there is no drag and drop around here son, etc.". If you werent so busy trying to glorify yourself by dissing people, I would show you appreciation too. I appreciate your effort in trying to answer my question, just wish you would stop to appreciate the intelligence of your fellow posters.

hmmm, well since u cant tell the tone of text, you cant be certain of how Im saying something. I added lol's to try and indicate humour but hey! u seem a little tight like ur wearing a thong or something (Thats a snide one 4ur pipe)
FYI, a pattern is a pattern AKA Midi data/instructions. There dont need to be a sound on the pad. The sound being on the pad is so you can hear it. Midi as im sure you are aware is not audio. Why you need to talk about Bios I'll never know. You need to loose this pattern on a pad thing!
Anyway,I gave u a couple of alternatives but you aint taking em on board so forget it.

Lemme try this out for size and see what you think.
Load a sample.
per pg 113 xl manual step 1.
Sample is asigned to a Midi Note.
Midi Note is assigned to a Pad.
Midi Note is what is recorded/sequenced on tracks.
(the only thing assigned to a pad is the midi note)
The only way I can see to solve your problem (without
changing pads) is to copy the snare track to a different
track within the same sequence, use a different DRUM #
on that copied track and assign the hhat you want to the
exact same pad as the original snare. There, it's done
maybe, maybe not, you tell me....(same as Bravo described)
BUT, if it's a simple enough part to be played again, I would just
play it again, it's a smaller process but I also understand that you
wish to use functions instead of realtime bang and play tactics..
