I see the Step Editor where one can write the individual patterns, but there doesn't seem to be any way to string them together - or more importantly store them first - to create a full arrangement such as in the photo below (the bottom half of Beatcraft has the 'sequencer' with the pattern list all neatly laid out all on the right, and the pattern arranger on the left with all the patterns labeled)
This seems to be a very quick and elegant way to write out full drum tracks. M7's step editor is excellent but I don't see any way to arrange multiple patterns with the ease and speed of Beatcraft or Hydrogen, FLStudio or even EZDrummer (?)
That and the step editor seems to be linear, not allowing for multiple patterns to be written and stored. Unless of course I missed something ???
Is there a way to do this that I may have missed.... if not I hope the good folks at Acoustica do address this in future releases. As this is a fairly standard way of writing drum tracks.
I suppose you could write a pattern, drag it to a track ect ect. But this seems to be a very cumbersome way of going about it as you are dealing with many patterns and their variations with no place to 'store' them. Hence Beatcraft with it's pattern list to right where you can see all patterns neatly laid out.
Hydrogen also has a great approach to writing and arranging patterns. With the step editor on the bottom and pattern arranger on top.
