This allows me to quickly swap in and out individual parts of a beat to trial them and also have subtle changes in the song. What I like to do is have a pattern with kicks & snares on it, another for hi-hats, another for toms etc. So for example, if you wanted you could have the entire song or big chunks of a song play from one pattern. * One of my favourite things about patterns is that you can assign anything to pattern - there's so much flexibility with this. This setup saves you a hell of a lot of delting patterns and then copy & pasting it again with the changes!
Then when you edit that pattern, any copy of it will receive the same edit. If you want to edit a pattern so that only that copy of it receives the edit, you just click on the top left corner of the pattern and choose to make it unique first so it becomes a new pattern. * If you edit a pattern, every copy of it will receive the same edit (Something no other DAW I've used does! Although it's possible LMMS does but I haven't used it lately). You can also hold right click and everything you touch will be deleted instantly (Same in the piano roll). You can also just hold the button down to repetatively paste the clip wherever you move the mouse. * If you left click on an existing pattern it will automatically copy it, then when you left click on the playlist it will paste that same pattern. There's also an option to randomly alter the velocities/other values and things like that. It's the same for any other parameter you've selected. Let's say you want to change the velocity of some notes - You just select the notes you want, hold alt & scroll the mouse wheel. * Controls for things like velocity, note pan etc are easily accessible and always visible at the bottom of the window. While I rarely use this, it's great for those sessions where you're really struggling for ideas (Waveform has something similar).
LMMS PLEASE OPEN A PATTERN GENERATOR
* It has a pattern and chord generator which can come up with new ideas or alter what you already have. There's no clicking and dragging needed unless you want to resize a note that already exists. * Left click will instantly draw a note (The same length as the last note you drew) and right click will instantly delete it. It's great for midi work! But just to list a couple of things to give you an idea. I always find it tough to explain this to people but if you use FLS for long enough to understand how those things work, you'll see what I mean. But as an FL Studio user, I'm just used to being able to work really quickly in the piano roll and I love the way midi clips work in FLS. That and Tracktion Waveform were my favourites. Qtractor is one of the best Linux DAWs I've tried. What do you think is missing in Qtractor? It has a very good MIDI editor.
