Well, to each his own... I do see playing live as manipulating patterns of
sequences, for example being able to play any number of measures of the
complete pattern, switching through multiple sections at will, back and
forth or in any combination while muting and unmuting tracks and doing real
time beat stretching, floating harmonies, etc. etc.  There are tons of
capability for performance in the RM, but like anything else it is limited
by personal style and creativity.  Whatever works best for the individual in
question is the only thing that matters.
