Yes, I've read through a couple of threads with similar problems but I don't seem to get it. I've never drawn a customized railing before, yes I'm still pretty new to Revit.

I want a specific pattern like this: starting post, then balusters with a distance of 150 mm and after every 2000 mm I want another type of baluster.

Pic 1. How it looks like now.
Pic 2. How I want it to look like. Photoshop modified.
Pic 3. Baluster parameters.

Please help me out!

You need to duplicate the regular baluster 11 more times and shorten the distance from previous baluster for the long baluster to 150 or 200 (not sure how you want to deal with the extra 50 mm)

And change the baluster justification to center.

Thanks guys for the help but it didn't seem to work. I still don't get it.

Ok, I've kinda solved the problem. I split the railing into segments instead and choose "spread pattern to fit". At least it looks like I want, but I guess it's not the right way to do it.

Remove the second "tall" baluster from the pattern, and it will remove the doubled baluster. Looks good.
