Why do producers use so many patterns?
At the most I use like 3 or 4 at once vet when producers post pictures I see like 10 being used at once. What is going on that so many need to be used?
I regularly have 140+ channels in my final projects. Detail and layering
Wow, kind of good question, i breakd my mind while i figured it out my self.
I see all sort of adventages of making my track by many patterns and they are:
- It is more orgenized
- Criativity/ Well, in FL (and i think in all programs a like) there an option to cut and lenght the pattern it self on the timebar. So for an example you have a mellody going on, and you want to double the last 2 bars of the pattern or make an a uplifter if it. So baicly you can make it with one patter but with mant patterns you can just cut the last 2 bars and copy paste it.
- Its really helps me with my kick production. While i making the kick i am just making one pattern or two with diferent kind of lenght of the kick and then i just cut off the right one in the timebar and put it in the right place.
- Also you can crat new stuff from your build up pattern. As i said, if you have a melody you can just cut the right bars from the pattern on youre timebar and creat a new melody of it. Its kind of cool technic that i really like.
Basicly, its what more comfor to you, but in my opinion the every sound in his own pattern thing is giving you a lot more options to play with your patterns.
Well, i hope i helped you to understand it =D

We generally don't use many patterns, prettymuch bounce everything to audio ASAP!
i have a loads of them , you cant add detail to a track with only 3-4 pattern. Usually my lead with melody is 4 layered , and i'got a bass underneath it , sweeper / explosion , clap , maybe some dubstep bass cuts etc.. usually my breaks are the most complex parts

This looks rediculous. I'm always wondering what's on all of these layers.
