Is it possible to play multiple patterns simultaneously?

I swear that at one point, unintentionally, I was hearing two of my patterns play together. One was almost drowned out by the other, but it made me think it might be possible. Now I can’t figure out how to reproduce that.

I have the manual and have been reading it and have watched Cuckoo’s mega tutorial several times.

Thanks.

If you switch to a pattern without triggers on a particular track that has sound (long release, long sample) hanging over from the previous pattern, then you will still hear those elements of the previous pattern.

Is this what you mean?

Pattern 1 > Track 1 > long sample, no triggers
Pattern 1 > Track 2-8 > anything, and can have triggers
etc…

Then switch to Pattern 2, which could have triggers on Track 1-8.

While on Pattern 2, Pattern 1 > Track 1 might still be playing.

Yep, so long as there’s no triggers on Pattern 2, Track 1.

Cool. That sounds like it might have nice potential.
Thanks

Did you check your delay and reverb settings?
That would hold audio between two patterns

Sorry for the unintelligible sentence. My phone is messed up.
