Re: [elektron] sequencing

2006-11-26 by Tarekith

I tend to transfer everything as audio to Live at that point.  Usually
I'll record the pattern as a whole with different mute variations,
then do any arranging with those in Live.  There's not really good way
of integrating the MD into a midi type rig IMO, so I just do it in the
audio realm.
