Cubase 14: Can you convert a MIDI pattern into a Pattern Event?

Can you convert a midi pattern into a pattern event for the step sequencer? I know you can convert pattern events to MIDI events. But does it go both ways?

No, it only goes the other way. I think it’s because the Patterns belong to the Track itself and not an object sitting on the Track. You can’t for example drag them to another Track. Can’t imagine why they didn’t implement it to be more similar to what already exists.

FYI, the objects sitting on the Tracks are Pattern Events and MIDI Parts which contributes to the disconnect. MIDI Events are like Notes & cc Messages.

I assume it would require some interpretation of the MIDI as well, which while not rocket science, does require effort. From pattern to MIDI is straightforward as everything’s neatly lined up and quantized.
