# pattern manager
|
|
|
|
the pattern manager is useful for cleaning up stray patterns and as an overview of pattern usage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**De-duplicate patterns** looks for matching patterns, eliminates all but the first instance, and changes all references in the order list to match.
|
|
|
|
**Re-arrange patterns** renumbers patterns to be in sequence, along with changing all references in the order list to match.
|
|
|
|
**Sort orders** renumbers orders and re-arranges patterns so that they are in order.
|
|
|
|
**Make patterns unique** will clone all patterns that have been used more than once.
|
|
|
|
the pattern grid shows each channel and all its patterns. these are color-coded to show how much they're used in the song; these colors can be changed in Settings.
|

|
| grey | Unallocated | pattern doesn't exist yet |

|
| red | Unused | exists but isn't in order list |

|
| green | Used | used only once in order list |
|
|
| yellow | Overused | used multiple times |
|
|
| orange | Really overused | used in half or more orders |
|
