A system to provide flexible stimulation pattern definition, delivery, and control to dynamically adjust a therapy regimen for electrical stimulation therapy based on patient needs. Firmware in an electrical stimulation delivery device that executes the therapy regimen may be implemented as a "player" of a series of instructions for the received stimulation patterns. The system may include a wearable device or an implantable device. An external computing device configured to program the electrical stimulation delivery device may include a stimulation pattern construct collection from which a clinician can select, assemble, and modify waveforms, bursts, pattern, sensing or other event triggers etc. to create a therapy regimen. The external computing device may transmit software that defines the selected regimen to the electrical stimulation delivery device memory, where the device "plays" the instructions to deliver electrical stimulation according to the therapy regimen.
