Thanks for your reply.
Interesting, I have been reading these forums and most people seem to agree that changing patterns on DT using Live clips does not work as they would like because the pattern change on the DT is delayed. Here is an example of the type of discussion I am talking about. My understanding of the problem was this:
When you launch a new scene on Live, the MIDI message to the DT to change patterns is only sent once the new clips launch, at which point the old pattern has already started playing on the DT, so the new pattern won’t start playing until after the old pattern has completed another loop. This wouldn’t be solved by turning global quantisation to zero on Live. Can you set pattern quantisation on the DT to none so that it triggers immediately and not at the end of a pattern? Maybe there has been an update to the DT and it is solved but I can’t find any info about that.
