Converting recorded Patterns to midi notes ?

Hi.
is it possible to somehow record the pattern pads with the relevant key, like pressing c-1 for intro then pressing D-1 for chorus,E-1 for fill etc… and automating the complexity and velocity, then convert all this to actual drum track with the midi info ?
that could be very easy and powerful tool to build a song like that and then having it as midi drum track for further editing.
