Easiest thing to do (IMHO) is set up each bank with different samples and think of the 16 patterns in the banks as variations of the pattern but with the same samples.
That way you get 16 "songs" (Banks of samples) each with up to 16 variation patterns per project, at least that how I've decided to look at how the octatrack is set up until they change it so you can have 1 sample setup per pattern.
