Very cool!!! I have added some more ideas to my trac ticket. http://www.assembla.com/spaces/hydrogen/tickets/115-stacked-patterns-and-samples-grid-selector Basically the pattern sequencer is completely usable as is afaiac. The main difference between h2 and AL is that AL has an additional interface for assigning a trigger to a specific stack of patterns. I will try to make some time to work on a mockup of the ui for this feature in the near future. From a back end perspective it's obviously no problem to have as many patterns as we want playing at the same time. How difficult would it be to add support for multiple pattern stacks with different bpm settings? I see this as modifying the xml for the session, adding a new interface for the trigger buttons, adding functionality for the trigger button playback methods and some trickery in the playback system to deal with multiple bpms at the same time.
