Recording without drilling into a cell?

[Trinkit]

Tap on the one of the EXT pads and hit the INFO button. You can then set the gate function to RECORD. There is also a midi not value that corresponds with these EXT pads that can be found in the manual.

Hey there, is there anyway to record to a cell with out touching into it and pressing record? For example, can you map the record function of a specific cell to a button on a launchpad pro to trigger recording of said cell without leaving the pad screen? Seems like an obvious function but I can't seem to figure it out.
