@StreetLife925 In later versions of FL 9, you may not have the pattern blocks at the bottom of the playlist. If so, you can still split by channel by going to the step sequencer and look for the drop down menu besides the words Pattern 1 in the upper middle of the step sequencer. Beneath the menu is Split by Channel.

Also I was wondering if it was possible to have two diff tempos for one song for a mix. Example: Starting with a hardstyle song (which the tempo is around 150) and going to a hardcore song (which i usually have around 165) all in the same song. Any info would be greatly appreciated, Thanx!!!

@420Hatchetnation This could easily be done using automation. I hope to have a tutorial on the matter up soon.

IN DESPERATE NEED OF HELP: i have spent 50+ hours on a track that is scheduled that i need to release to my label in 2 weeks. i had to remix the entire track which was another 10 hours. i did most of the mixing in pattern, and some in song loop mode. but now when i go back to song mode, all the levels change! luckily i was saving all the way through, so if i re open it again, (it opens in pattern mode) the levels are fine, but then i choose song mode and again they all change!?!?!?! WTF pls help

took me a couple tries to get the multiple patterns right, and learned the hard way that deleting one track from the pattern deletes it from all of the patterns. very helpful, much appreciated.

I can't seem to split the pattern sequencer. I followed your instructions as per but when I lay the patterns on the song sequencer it still plays the same pattern even tho I've set Pattern 1 and Pattern 2 to play different things. Please help
