Ok this is a brilliant feature in the 4k!

if your layering up tracks from an old song and want to be able to layer the sample bass with a hardware synth by setting the Part:B to MIDI output then:

move cursor to:Highlight (track): TR>OpenWindow> command: SHIFT+DEFAULT

and ALLl other patterns should use this settingas their track setting (the DEFAULT)

This eliminates the need to go though each pattern track by track (I know I can create (combine) to make a song) but I need this to be in pattern mode)

anyone tried this? all I get is WTF... :roll:

I´m actually talking about few old projects, some with 128 sequences in the song ..and having to change each of the track (quite a few tracks in each pattern as I like to layer the drums too) for each project is had labor .... that's when I remembered this gorgeous feature .. and I was all like: man the 4k is the bomb! 8) ... but then nada .. :evil:

they implanted the window for this and everything.. :hmmm:
