Hi,  
I’m trying to create a song section with 2 pairs of chords in Scaler 2 on the iPad. The first pair of chords repeats twice, then the 2nd pair of chords repeats twice. Is there a way to do this within a single pattern? Was trying to find a way to group each pair of chords within the pattern so that I could have a single “REPEAT” parameter of “2” that would apply to each pair, but wasn’t able to find a way to do that.

Thanks

Hey @danm Can you not do that in the Edit Page?

That is my question.  
Are you or anyone else able to answer it? I watched this video and don’t see anywhere on the Edit Page that one can group 2 chords and set a repeat value for the pair, but I’m sure I’m missing something. I only see the ability to set repeat on individual chord, which means the only way I see to get the pattern I want is to setup a pattern like this:

[Chord1] [Chord2] [Chord1] [Chord2] [Chord3] [Chord4]

What I’m asking is if I can set it up like this:  
[Chord1] [Chord2] [Chord3] [Chord4]  
with a “REPEAT” set on the first pair of chords

Thanks

No don’t think that’s possible in Scaler 2. You could use multiple patterns and link them or just use trigger notes in a host (DAW).
