play pattern in pattern view #27

Open waffel opened 9 years ago

... without the need to start a sequence and create a 1 pattern loop ... it would be nice to play a single pattern of a machine which is currently shown in the pattern view ... makes it easier to compose complex rhythm stuff.

So what you want is a way to loop the current pattern, without playing anything else? I can probably do that in the "play-notes" mode, there I loop an empty pattern at the "end of time". I could also just create a fake-sequence entry for this pattern. Needs a plan for how to represent this in the UI and probably a bit of work in the core (what if there is no track for the machine etc.)
