Pattern doubling and halving - advanced editing

[AndrewBloom]

Would be nice to have functions like:

1) with drum button pressed, rotating 1st encoder i double or halve the resolution of the pattern
use scenario: user enter kick and snare on a sequence of 8 steps [KSKSKSKS]. after needs to enter hi hat in 16th, so doubles the resolution and the sequence becomes 16 steps. kick and snare are now on steps 1-3-5-7-9-11-13-15.
problems: halving sequence need a policy for notes that are not supported by the resolution [going from 16 to 8 steps loses notes on 2 - 4 - 6 - 8... or moves them on 1-3-5-7...]
open problem: support of triplets? [maybe on 2nd encoder?]
2) with the drum button pressed, rotating 3rd encoder doubles the sequence length and copies the pattern on the new second half, or cuts the sequence and discards second half.
usage: user makes a nice 16 steps drum pattern, wants to alternate it with the same pattern but different ending [cymbals for example].
this concept could be extended using steps keys, like for example selecting first and last steps and discarding what is out of the interval selected.

I forgot, the the 4th encoder while pressed drums, should rotate the sequence,
pos : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
step: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
becomes turning the knob 1 value on the right:
pos : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
step: 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
and again:
pos : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
step: 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6

It happens a lot of times that a pattern doesn't start at the start of the bar for whatever reason and while you build up your song at one point you're screwed, like for example if you want to stop and start again adding a bar of silence.

This should be possible for track and for all the 3 sequences together
