I didn't see any way to set the individual tracks in the trigger matrix to different lengths for polymetric grooves.
So here's the idea I came up with. A new FX called Break Mask, with two codes, BMLO and BMHI (I'll explain why there's two in a moment).
The idea here is to use the FX Value to set a mask for each track.
A "1" means don't break, a "0" means break.
So for example, "BMLO AA" would let tracks 1, 3, 5, and 7 continue, and break (return to step 00) tracks 2, 4, 6, and 8.
Because, AA = 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0
"BMLO 55" would do the opposite, letting 2, 4, 6 and 8 continue while breaking tracks 1, 3, 5, and 7.
Again because, 55 = 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1
(MSB = track 1, LSB = track 8 to match the track layout on the page)
And of course, BMHI would do the same for tracks 9-16.
Possible?
