Pattern triggers

Wouldn’t this be an interesting set of features to add to the Hapax:

  1. Trigger pattern playback from various conditions such as midi pc, cc, note (on/off), cv, fill etc with operators (=, !=, <, > etc).
  2. Follow len ”COND” plays the pattern while the trigger condition is true, then continues with Follow action.
  3. Individual pattern sync (not only on entire track)
  4. Follow action ”RTN” returns playback to where it came from before this pattern.

Examples of use with the above:

A. Start playing pattern 1 when midi cc 80 becomes greater than 0.

B. Temporarily jump to pattern 2 (on the beat, not bar) when Fill is pressed. Return playback to where it came from when Fill is released.

C. Play pattern 3 when note on C4 (midi ch X) is received, pattern 4 on D4, etc. Play pattern 9 when note on >= B4.

D. Play silent pattern when no note pressed.

and much more…

New trigger conditions can be on unused page 2nd + [pad] when in pattern mode.

What are your thoughts?
