(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) I don't know how many people use Apple IIe's for MIDI out there, but for those of you who do, what is a good sequencer for the IIe? I got a demo copy of Studio II by Syntech I believe. Because ti is a demo copy, it has limited features, for instance, it doesn't use all available memory. At any rate, even if it did, the user I/F for this sequencer is a drag to use. You have to do alot of paging thru menus to get to what you want and the functions require a two key command ie. control Q, control W, etc. I just think it's a real clumsy interface so I couldn't justify buying this sequencer. So anyway, what do you use? I like the idea of a sequencer that is controlled from the synthesizer keyboard rather than the qwerty. Some other features I prefer are: Real time and step time input Optional auto correction A MIDI thru function (input passed thru to output) 8 tracks minimum with assignable MIDI channels sync to drum machines ability to accept sysex commands as part of sequence transpose, velocity offset, etc. Thanks in advance.
