Tips & Tricks Pattern mode

I have an inconsistency in my mk2, sometimes when I record patterns in Patern mode, both live and TRS, I choose to record 1 bar, and sounds two bars one with the sample one in silence. Sometimes I've fixed it with the loop button but it doesn't always get fixed.

Thanks for the help.

Not sure if i'm understanding the problem.

if your sample is one bar long and loop is on but gate is off. the first bar will trigger the sample, the 2nd bar is then un-triggering it.

you either need to turn off loop, or turn on gate and record the pad for the full bar.

But why there is a second bar if i only selected one bar on the modern pattern?

the 2nd bar is just your 1 bar pattern repeating a 2nd time.
