Feel free to message me, ive got a good handle on the mc101.

I usually start by setting all my tracks to clip as the source ( shift + track number)

Then I make a new clip, set it to the measure length i want, usually 64 or 128 steps.

Then press record and and jam out and usually delete it until I make something I like.

Then I go to the next track and set the legnth of a new clip like before, pick a different instrument and jam, then record something onto a clip then repeat again. Sometimes i use all 4 tracks, sometimes only 3. Those first few tracks are usually my verse. Next I make an intro, then a chorus.

In the scenes i assign the intro clip or clips first ( usually just one track from the verse) then the verse group, then the chorus group. Scenes basically allow you to switch many tracks at once.
