Re: [seq24-users] Monophonic Overwrite/Phrase sequencer

[Ivan H. <ihe...@ki...>]

Hello Niels.
I have sent a response first to the other thread.
1) No, there is no Monophonic Overwrite. Seq24 is not a live looping 
tool. Seq24 has a very strong sense of ntoes times in real time, not in 
"beats" so overwriting is not a trivial task. it's not like some Beat 
based drum machines where you have a fixed 16 beats on a pattern. You 
here can record abritrary timings for your notes. So monophonic 
overwrite will not be a feature in the near future i guess. Try 
freewheeling.
2) You are using a really outdated version. go 0.8.6 now. really.
3) There are still some patches to several bugs on the mail list 
history. if your 0.8.6 version has one of that bugs, try them.
Cheers
Ivan
