I've seen users ask many times how to link the patterns in redrum but me and others have told them to use automations,well I've just found a more powerful way and it's huge imo! Just create a pattern lane for redrum and use the pencil to draw how many bars you want for that pattern A1 etc... You can then switch between patterns flawlessly. When you create a pattern lane choices between patterns and loops show up in the sequencer nice!

It technically still is automation editing! :) Search automation editing in Reason's help.

True,I thought about changing that but was too tired last night lol. But I was doing it with vector automation at first,very tedious task back in the day in Reason.

This has been in Reason since day 1 :) I have whole songs consisting of nothing but pattern lanes.

In addition to this, you can offset these patterns so they can start on whatever bar/beat you want which I've used to keep longer patterns in sync with the song when there's a 2/4 bar somewhere in the arrangement (as one example). Very flexible!

You can also shorten the block from the left to get the step sequencer to start in different places.

I wish they (Propellerheads) would open up this ability to to other RE's... it makes it very tedious to have to control the patterns by drawing them with a pencil...
