Technicsplayer:- You're almost there. ! Firstly, I haven't got the 'American Software Series' and I don't even know what you mean when you refer to 'solo composer variation'. However, it is irrelevant.

Basically, what you've said is right.Well done. However, your comments regarding the key of the composer recording, is irrelevant to what I do, and why I do it. Quite simply, recordings in the composer can always be done in the same key ('C' being the optimum), because when recording from composer to sequencer, the split keyboard setting for the APC, automatically means, that whatever note (and I mean a single note), is depressed in the left hand, will determine the key being sequenced. In fact, to start the actual recording process, only the playing of a single note is required. Isn't technology marvellous. !!

You also appeared to miss the important factor of 'stretching' the bars in the composer. So that in 'realtime' 16 bars can take either 30secs (at 120 tempo), or 1min 30secs if set at the minimum of 40. In terms of a complete arrangement, this is a vital factor. Cheers, and thsnks.
