how to get more control over THOR sequencer patterns?

[MitchClark89]

hello to everybody

i have been using a really cool patch in the thor sequencer run into matrix (filter 1 eq from thor into curve cv on matrix) which i like the sound of very much. what i find puzzling and frustrated is that the thor sequencer loop (set to repeat/random/note/4steps) changes the arpeggios (i think they are called) the longer the song is looped and sometimes they are different when i restart the loop from the first time. the problem is that i actual like the first 8 bars of this sequence but then it start to do the off notes within the sequence that i do not like so much.



is there a way to copy the sequencer pattern to midi track so that i could edit out the parts i do not want?

thank you for all help and suggestions as always

Check your LFOs in the mod matrix of Thor. Make them synced and reduce length to have always the same within a loop. But you should understand that this also changes the sound.

hi loque i just want to thank you for the tip. i played around with the lfos and sync setting but still couldnt get the pattern to stop randomly changing every now and again, i think the only way would be to take the pattern off random and set take pattern from first 4 steps and copy across the whole 16 and then isolate the one that is causing problem.

thank u again for helping

Filter EQ into Matrix CV? Can you please provide a picture of it or the patch? Than i will have a look into it.

Yes, in the Reason 9 by Players. But only notes, curves not can.

Or if you have Reason higher 6.5 and virtual midi cable you can to make midi loopback with External MIDI device and record it into reason' sequencer track. With curves as MIDI CC (but with coarse print curves).

Right click Matrix and "Copy Pattern to Track"?

[ljekio]

Matrix?
I guess about Thor's sequencer.
And copy pattern cannot write CV curve into track.

helo to loque and ljekio

the cv curve cable was a part of the patch. i have actually bypassed the matrix to see if it stops producing the random ugly notes during the pattern, but it did not. here is what it looks like anyway:

So you connected the Matrix TO Thor, i was a bit confused. Finally i still bet on the LFOs if they are not in sync or the Pattern length, Speed or Loop. But if it only changes after a longer play period, it is, well, weird. Maybe a Delay FX or any other FX?

sorry loque for the confusion! i am not really that great with the technical side of reason. ps i am on reason 8. thank you again for your help, i will look again at the LFO and the other parameters that you have mentioned.

Hello

Try to copy patch and in one of patches turn off thors sequencer and try by your ears to copy sequence from another thor. When it is just first 8 notes, then it dont waste so much time.

To eliminate strange sounds try to, like logue said, turn off delay, and set thors pitchwheel to 0 (matrix is modulating thors pitch wheel and delay could make some strange chords with pitched notes)

Random pattern is random, so the notes thor plays will be random. Good thing in this patch is, that thors sequencer plays only three different notes.

I hope, this helped you

hello praznovksy

thank you for the detailed reply - i am going to try what you have suggested and i also appreciate your explanations about the mod wheel and matrix and the random patterns. i did not know much of these things and this is very helpful.

kind regards
