Thanks John.  I will ponder on this patch for a while.

My experience has been mostly with hardware sequencers.  I software
sequencers are fine but sometimes inspiration and my computer don't mix.

One of the easiest I ever used was the old Alesis MMT-8.  Its only fault,
no storage, you needed a separate disk drive.  hence the "data disk".  The
the data disk SQ which was cool for storage for the MMT-8 or as a stand
alone playback device for stage (no editing).

Today I use the hardware sequencer mostly in my T1.  Editing is about as
good as software jobbies on most decent sequencers.  I hope that's waht you
meant by "hardware."

Thanks again for the "patch".  This modular is a whole new ball game for
me.

Later,
Larry
