Thanks for the advice Ed and Pete, plenty of choices there. on the computer end of it, I do have a pc but don't think I could get used too programming all over again. Takes too much time as it is. The sequencer on the Esq might be an antique but I know it so well now....anyway you get my drift.
However, I'm a firm believer in "don't knock it till you've tried it!", so has anyone stepped up to using a computer from doing it the "old" way with sequencers and multitrackers and so on? If so, what are the main advantages? Does it take the "spontanaety" (I know i've spelled that wrong) out of it?
