Octa chain behavior

Hi guys !!
I want to change my pattern, 32 steps after my cue. So i set the chain behaviour at 32/16 but the pattern changes at 16 steps. Why is that happening? Can anybody help?

What is your master length/pattern length? Has to at least set to 32.

Its 128. Thanx for the response by the way

You’ve set the Use Pat Set under Chain Behaviour in Pattern Settings to 32/16 or set it under global settings and checked the box Use Prj Set under Pattern Settings?
I know you said you did, just double checking.

Than it should change after 32 steps. I just tested it on my OT, because I usually want my pattern changes quantized to 16 steps and thought maybe I’m overlooking something, but no.

Maybe reload the project? That usually helps if something doesn’t work as it should. Make sure you have saved what you want.

I ve set it up under the chain behaviour. (When you say global settings what exactly do you mean …). Well to tell you the truth probably is working but not in the way i want. What I mean. First 16 steps is 1:4, second 16 steps is 2:4 etc…when i cue to 1:4 ,the pattern is changing properly. It plays 1:4 , 2:4 and goes to the next pattern. BUT when i cue while it plays 2:4 it doesnt play the 3:4 . At the end of 2:4 goes to next pattern . So it doesnt change after 32 steps ,it changes after 16. Is this normal? Sorry for my english ,I hope you can understand what I am saying.

Ah, yeah, I get what you mean. That is how it´s intended to work. It will change basically at the end of the second bar (assuming 4/4), it won´t wait exactly 32 steps. It´s like pattern change is quantized to 2 bars, so it changes at the end of the 32 steps.
I personally would set it to 16 steps and then you can always change at the end of the bar, just have to cue the change at the right time.

Ps: There´s a global setting in the menu (I think under personalize?) which you can activate under pattern settings. If you are using the same value all the time, it´s faster to set it to global, but it´s basically the same thing.
