Hi Everyone! here just beginning to get into Tidal Cycles and extremely excited. I'm getting the hang of making patterns but trying to structure and combine patterns I find myself a bit confused by the "Pattern Structure" section of the docs.
For example when it says:
"2 3" + "4 5 6"
Which I interpret that something like:
d1 $ s "bd bd" + "sn hh cp"
Will yeld a combination of patterns however this doesn't work as far as combining the pattern, I only hear the first one before the add operand.
What I'm ultimately hope to achieve for pattern structure would be something like this:
p 2 $ s "bd bd sn hh"
p 3 $ s "[bd <sd hh>/2 bd <cp sd>/2]*2"
p 4 $ s "bd bd sn hh*2"
p 5 $ n "[bd <sd hh> bd <cp sd>/2]*3"
p 4 $ s "bd*2 bd*2 sn hh*2"
Then run something d1 $ "2 3" + "4 5 6"
and then I'd hear all the patterns one after the other in a cycle, but it doesn't work either.
Can someone clarify what does the Pattern section mean by this? Preferably with some code I can run to see it in practice. Also if it is not related to combining patterns, how can I go about combining "named" patterns. Thank you so much!
