pierre,

i was in the same not-sure-for-what situation, and decided to ease myself into analogue 
sequencing with a 160/161 combination, thus saving 1) loads of money and 2) loads of 
space. i was also more interested in control than notes.

limited, i know, but very much less so than i had imagined, necessity being the mother of 
invention.

my intention to buy something more spectacular once i'd gained a little more experience 
with the small stuff has now been put on ice - there is so much that you can do with the 
160/161 once you start plugging it into all those envelopes, slew filters and other stuff 
you've already got, that i plan to simply add another such combo to my very modest half 
empty suitcase.

which leaves me with enough cash and TEs to change my mind later :) or add a few other 
cheapo switches for more stuff that you never did with cubase.

cheers,

stu
