Feature Request: Loops in Patterns

Hapax

Jamming/live performing would be greatly improved with loops in patterns.

Eg having a pattern with 16 bars. The first 8 bars are the intro, while the last 8 bars are the main sequence. Imagine set a loop marker/point after the first 8 bars: so the first 8 bars will play once while the second 8 bars will loop as usual.
This would help to save space because i dont need 2 patterns to do this.
I know that is possible in song mode but there i would need 2 patterns as well.

Would that be something to consider?

Thanks and cheers!

Why not just chain patterns? You have 16 patterns per track to work with

to save pattern space (vertically) and keep corresponding patterns in a row (to launch them with the row button)
