Elektron Musical Instruments

Hi there,
Sorry about this question, I expect it has been asked before but its
so hard to find stuff on this list... I just want to know about
sequencing the MachineDrum using a computer sequencer, can you trigger
whole patterns with midi notes or something like that? I want to jam
on the box and get beats made and then sequence on a computer,
preferably without bouncing to audio for increased flexibility. Again
I apologise but I can't seem to find it in the manual and i want to
get on with writing some songs not just beats!
Best
Theo
