The sequencer topic is my favorite. My Korg i30 also has a great sequencer. I don't have time to build sequences with computer software. Besides some of the styles on keyboards are very good and I use them to play my sax.

If you just sing and play keyboard, the sequencer is not necessary. But for a horn player etc. the sequencer is a necessity.

If the sequencers were better on keyboards and easier to use, I wonder how many horn players or guitar players would get hooked on one and want to do one man band gigs too. It seems that a lot more of a market would be available if horn men were taught to use the sequencer on keyboards.

All of the best horn players I ever knew were very knowledgable of and able to play chords on a piano. Like I said the arranger people could creat a much larger market with a little education to horn musicans and improve on the onboard sequencers of arrangers.

I know! What do I know I'm just a bricklayer!
