Color by pattern number

[premini]

Today we can color sequencer screem positions.
For me it'd be great to have colors dependent of patterns #, e.g. if i choose a certain color for pattern 01 then every place i put that pattern it uses the color i defined.
It'd help to have a better visualisation of the song structure.

I think you already have that but requires some work on your part....I'm all for ease of use but I tend to colour in blocks regardless of pattern number. Others may have their own schemes.

I can see the value in both options, personally. What if patterns themselves could have a colour optionally assigned to them and then be optionally overridden on the sequence screen? Best of both worlds, perhaps?

sounds cool

Maybe necroing an old post, but I would also like to have "by pattern" coloring.

I second that.

After trying different approaches I have realized I do not structure my pieces by "sequencer regions/rows" but by "function" within the context of a song/piece. I do have patterns that have certain functions (like being part of verse, refrain, bridge, intro, etc.) and when I reuse a pattern they almost always retain their function. Consequently I would want to use colours to identify such blocks. Thus I'm for colours "by pattern"

I hope the above makes sense.

Kind regards,

Just fyi, regions will get much more importance now that many more people use a launchpad soon.
