[Filippo Peccoz]

Thanks Scott and Ed! Downloading these patches now, I'll try everything out :) I can't wait to attach patterns to game states at this point!

Cheers,

It would be great to have a drum machine that can change beat patterns based on those states, and maybe generate fresh patterns in a controlled way. Two different problems, I know, but I was wondering first of all how you would solve the saving of patterns inside the instrument.
