How can one setup a sequencing workflow such as this using Ableton?

Would appreciate any workarounds.

If you have max for live there’s several ways to do it, natively I’m not sure.

How would you route a midi track say like a drum rack to trigger a sequence using this device?

Either midi from or midi to in the track output section of the mixer.

Oh my god. I had a total flashback. This was how we used to have to sequence everything. In 1988 I played my first gig like this. An SH101 clocked by the rimshot of a TR626.
Next song? Time to manually enter the next sequence into the SH 101. Live in front of people. Hopefully 16 notes but probably
15 . Aaaargh. Triggers my Post traumatic stress.
