Can OT control pattern changes on DT or MS?

I know neither of those machines have “song mode” and can chain patterns but not save those chains… can the OT’s arranger tell them which pattern to play? Even if it’s just within one bank of 16 patterns that would suit my needs, I want to have all my drums coming in on one OT track, and still be able to mix the drums until I make a final arrangement and mix down… or if not the DT or MS any suggestions?

Just set the Digitakt and Model:Samples to receive Program Changes and Clock, set the OT to send Program Changes and Clock. Set all to send/receive Program Changes on thesame channel.
All machines should follow the pattern changes of the OT.
