Use Maschine VST to sample live Guitar in Ableton

Hi,

I've got a workflow that I like for live and recording using Maschine instances in Ableton. One thing I would love to do though is live sample my guitar in the Maschine VST version so I can actually chop them live as well.

Is there a way to do this?

I load an instance of Maschine in Ableton then I have the option to choose an external input even in the VST mode, but when I plug in my guitar I don't get any sound coming in.

My working theory is that I can't do this because Maschine is loaded on a MIDI track in Ableton so Ableton won't recognize the audio coming in since it's not an audio track. Is thing right?

I love sampling my external instruments with Maschine in the software or in standalone with my Maschine + but I just can't break out of 8 bar loops into fuller arrangements with Maschine so I want to keep my Ableton workflow.
