I arranged all of my sequences in the [SONG] window and hit CONVRT to convert the song into a sequence. I left track status on REFERENCED TO !ST SQ so it would follow sequence 1's settings. It created a new sequence made up of the smaller sequences I had arranged into a song. All went well, except that when I play it back, sound stops coming out after the first sequence ends.

To make it more clear: Let's say I had a song arranged, made up 3 different 4-bar sequences played one time each in succession. When I convert the song into a sequence, there should be a 12 bar loop of continuous sound. However, when I play the newly created sequence back, the first sequence of 3 (from before converting) plays out, and then sound stops. If I hit any of the <stop> or <<bar>> buttons during that silence after the first sequence ends, sound starts playing again from where it should have been playing. But if I hit stop and start over again, the same thing happens.

This has been pretty frustrating, and I can't seem to find any info on it. I've never posted in here, but am wondering if anybody has any information that could be helpful. Also let me know if you need clarification of any sort. Thanks

The bars are continuous. Not sound. All that conversion does is combine all those SEQ's into 1 big SEQ, it's not a song, treat it as a seq. It's not separate anymore, it's all 1 big SEQ, treat it as a SEQ. Go into step edit and look around at all events in the first few bars and clear up stuff that does jive. :-D
