Why pattern changes need to be automatable

You should be able to open it up in your DAW, press play in your song in the daw, (which would start Maschine) Push record on Maschine & then just change the patterns or scenes live through the song, on the fly. And then you should be able to edit any of the changes afterwards. You should be able to change the length of the change so it could change every bar, 1/2 bar 1/16th bar etc. That would make creating the Maschine parts in to your song very creatively & as you were feeling it. Or you just step rercord.
This was a function on drum machines in the 80's for petes sake!!
I've found that because all that speed & quick creativity is not there with Maschine when you come to write songs i've actually stopped using it.!!
I've been assured that they are working on this & should be a part of the next big release.
It really is essential in spontaneous song writing!!!
