This whole idea of starting blank chains with the K command is strange and alien to me.
I usually end the previous phrase with a K if I want to mute the next part. Then again I'm a dumbass. I also use 00.

There's little need for starting a phrase starting with a K when you can just K07 on the last note of a phrase you want to end 
. That is assuming you're using groove 6/6.
But that won't be anything I'll be talking about at my masterclass workshop or anything.

Unless your previous phrase ends with a command.

In 99% of cases you won't have a command that would be audible since you're killing it 1/16 (or 32nd) note later--- or an effect couldn't be made by making a new instrument

I don't have an empty with a K 00.. if I need something to that effect i usually just do a K06 at the end of the phrase that needs to stop.
and clearly i don't read things.

not that i use lsdj but i always start patterns with note cut in every channel i'm not using, unless i have special reason not to
how often do you really want a note from an old pattern to drone on for the whole time that channel is empty?

Unless it's an E command. Haha! I'm sorry I don't mean to pick this apart. Jus' sayin'.
I've never thought of putting a K command at the end with tick delay. Makes me wish I could be at the Masterclass.

An E command? Just put in a new instrument with the envelope values you want. Besides, even X1 would sound almost the same as X0-X8,9 etc when you're killing it one 16th note later.
Now if you were using an R command on percussion to simulate a quick drum fill, THAT is a case where you'll run into a problem.

Hey yeah this is exactly what I do. I don't need no masterclass

In the context of using the E command I was thinking along the lines of creating an echoing effect.
EDIT: So I just realized that this wouldn't matter if the envelope is going to fade out anyways. /i'mdumb

EDIT: yes you are very silly for not thinking of the thing you thought of which i totally didn't not think of as well!

Yup, you can do that with a new instrument and note.

Very nice with K07! Never thought of that.
I definitely am guilty of using Rxx on the final note a lot though too hehe
Offline
but I guess you COULD simulate Rxx with a table's volume column...but I don't think you'd exactly get something like Rx1 because since it retriggers on every tick, your volume column would have to be like half a tick in the y value
like if I wanted to simulate a pulse instrument with envelope A1 using R02...
volume column could be
A1
01
A1
01
(etc.)
But R01 would have to be like
A .5
0 .5
A .5
0 .5
which is impossible, right?

but then again that would be using another table which I don't have any to spare so I figure I'll just call someone who knows more about this stuff anyway
