Converting a single Pattern to a Clip in standalone or controller mode is currently not possible. Right now, Maschine+ converts the entire Scene instead. On the other hand, the software can convert an individual Pattern. For workflow continuity, this should also be possible on the hardware.
A potential solution would be to allow selecting the desired Pattern using the 4D encoder. At the moment, the 4D encoder does nothing inside the SONG menu. It could be able to scroll through Patterns or Scene Sections, and then let the user convert either the whole Scene, or specific Pattern within that Scene (just like the desktop software).
If I’m mistaken, feel free to correct me.
