Hello @Dissofiddle ,
thank´s for your reply. Yes I know about routing on a per pattern basis, but I could not think of any use for that, at least till now.
Track arming works for me with input set to none. (Just another method )
I tried the negative delay in the past for the midi track that holds my pattern change notes.
I remember it not working so well in the past, but I will give it another try now.
Will report back.
As a workaround I placed the the item that holds the note for the pattern change in the measure before the actual change should happen.
Having it on the measure that the change should happen is of course better organised and more clear to see what is actually happening.
As you already mentioned visually aligned.
