ensoniq sequencers [Re: Good VFX-SD Stories]

2010-01-10 by somethingkillingyou

@ Claus, 
well, I did say that I'm in no way an expert with ensoniq sequencers! it's just that at least on paper they seems to be more complicated and less advanced than the ones I'm using right now, which of course are not the most advanced in the world nowaday either, but are at least very intuitive and easy to use, and packed with good features (the arpeggiator being the most useful)

@ David L, 
you're right, I do prefer pattern sequencers, anyway I DON'T use quasimidi's pre-programmed motifs, I do my own motifs/patterns... I don't even play techno or electro music, my style is more new wave-ish... I do use a lot the arpeggiator though...

@everyone,
this is not a competition! I simply would like to be enlightened about the advantage(s) you get using vfx-sd/sd-1's sequencer! I'm a bit lazy with things like that... I mean, I'd like to get the most out of every synths I'm using, but I'm not sure wether to learn to use this sequencer or not. that's it.
