You know, those long loops can actually work AGAINST you too. I transfered a Korg pattern called "Dorian" from the earlier "i" series. This is a very cool, swing pattern with a beautiful walking bass line. It rivals my own, and has become one of my favorite patterns, however it's an 8 bar loop. This makes it all "out of whack" when I do a blues number that is written in 12 bar sections. There is an obvious "strangeness" in the pattern when it is 4 bars off.

I love the pattern, but this is driving me a little batty ! The resetbutton can bring the downbeat back to "1", but it won't reset the pattern to the 1st bar of the loop ...it just deals with the measure at hand.
