OK, to answer the question, I'll freeform for awhile. Please keep in
mind I DID read the FAQ but it's a lot to absorb.

I'm looking for a good sequencer to facilitate live jamming using my
many synths.
I'd like to be able to lay down a loop (say 4 measures), play multiple
layers on different outboard synths, then assign this pattern to a key
or button. Repeat the process several times and then change sections on
the fly, adjusting layers as needed to create variations. Have 3 or 4
live musicians jamming with this in realtime. Send midi clock to the
guitar rig and other arp-synths and drum machines.

The foot pedal to tap-tempo feature is very important to me. 

The arp capabilities sound like a great plus. Even though they aren't
polyphonic per se, it sounds like they can be stacked, right? Will they
trigger external gear (arp out)?

Another interesting use will be to develop a control track to send CC
messages to a few older units which sync to tap but not clock. Layers of
CC messages on multiple channels.

Being able to save groups of patterns to be triggered by single notes on
a keyboard would be nice too.
