dave,
point taken on the counter / register aspect.
one possible reason to favor one approach over the other though might be the 
"human interface" aspect. do you like to work with knobs and incorporate 
their unique qualities, do you prefer some sort of hex kybd. note data entry, 
it too has its own unique qualities as does the standard kybd oriented 
"memory recorder".  they are all sequencers but each brings its own 
personality to the system it is a part of.
depends what you want to do with it !
best,
dave v.
