i was interested in what you people think makes a great sequencer? if you could have the sequencer of your dreams (studio or live), what would you be looking for?! for me, an intuitive, simple and flexible controlling setup has been an issue for a while - one which i haven't seen a great solution to yet. what about you?

something like the simplicity of protools audio manipulation, with the the midi functions of sx for me, although i hear nuendo is pretty close (never tried tho)

i second what blu says.

something with the audio side of protools, the simplicity of SX midi.

a few musts:
-multiple input vsts for things such as sidechaining comps/triggering gates.
-rewire capability
-vst compatibility
-comfortable work design, ie something easy on the eyes--not too complex and not too bland.

Id love to see something that has a graphical interface for mac or PC, but then a portable hardware box with a perfect blend of simplicity and controls

something like an RS7000, with a better sampler (dump the synth engine IMO) and a full featured software counterpart that would allow you to lay down the basics in your studio and then take them out and expand in a live setting.

Ableton has it close..but..a dedicated controller is missing though. The ones that are out are certainly impressive, but theyre not app specific.

Ability to have similar but independent "blocks" for MIDI, audio and audomation on the arrange page. Also the ability to group these blocks, with visual feedback. (So eg. you can see that "aha, those blocks are grouped together because all has green border" etc...)

Reason has a pretty nice feature, where you modify the content of one "block" it automatically changes its colour, but just a little, so you can spot identical blocks, but similar ones as well. (Base lead part is red, and one variation of the base lead is lighter red).

cheers,
Rags
