Hi! This would be my first post!
I did IT back in 1999 but shifted to mac and have been using Cubase and such since. Happily! I found Renoise a week ago. 
I’m just wondering if I can loop more than one pattern, while only seeing/working with one specific pattern in the track window?
Thanks!

Sure, with the squares to the left, in the sequencer. See the tutorial for more info:

Wow, this tutorial really helps out when explaining stuff (good work Vincent!) 
It would have been better if the tutorial would not serve as the extension of explanation but rather do the complete explanation job itself.
Though, nothing against extra help not incorporated, it just proves i didn’t do my job good enough yet.
Just guessing, but isn’t that because more people find the forum instead of the tutorial?
hm… thanks for the fast replies, but I’m not sure I made myself clear… Because it doesn’t help
I get what the left-most sequence tags are for, that’s not it, is it the square with pattern number you’re referring to? Is anything supposed to happen when left-clicking on it?
It would seem logic that left-clicking there would hold that pattern, even though more patterns are in the loop?
What does the BlockFlip do?
Ok, I think I get what you’re after… you want to loop 2 patterns as described in the tutorial. But while doing that, you want to edit only the first one…? Well, since the currently showed pattern always follows the sequencer, it’s not possible.
That’s why there were requests for some kind of extra sequencer or specific trackview etc.
Yeah, like Johan says, except that it might as well be the 2nd, or any pattern in the specified loop.
Is that difficult to add? Isn’t it just another command? Like “Edit only this pattern” in the pattern menues right mouse click?
