hey everyone, just a quick +1 for the muse sequencer...if you haven't tried it (and like linear sequencing), give it a whirl. things I like about it are: 1. the piano roll is really nice 2. can run without the audio engine 3. softsynths seem to be really well integrated it reminds me a lot of my early cakewalk 3.1 days (and I mean that as a compliment), and I've enjoyed working with it. one more thing - thank you for the youtube tutorials! I tend to learn best by hearing things explained, and having videos showing how to work the application is really nice! -- Josh Lawrence http://www.hardbop200.com
