I find using Arps on the Maschine to be bonkers. You have to play them into your pattern, which seems to run very sluggishly for me, not to mention you have to quantize and move around your results. With other gear, you can take an existing chord progression and have that trigger the arp, but this doesn't seem to work with Maschine. It won't arpeggiate pre-recorded notes in a pattern.
So is there a way to route the midi from one pattern into another, to be able to logically (and perfectly) generate arps for your progressions?
