Re: compact sequencers



Thanx Mark,so you use the EDP mostly as the master yeah? what i was 
thinking is using the seq to control the EDP loops for you and trigger 
certain comands to do complex arrangements while you are just 
concentrating on playing instead of tap dancing, never done it that way 
but i am curious how that would work...
