Greetings all
I've been sequencing for the best part of 20 years now, but only using my
keyboard's onboard sequencer, mainly due to the lack of enough courage to
try out something external.
This is, as I'm sure you all know, very limiting.
Through the years I've used amongst others, a Roland JV1000, then a Yamaha
PSR 2000, and until September last year, a Yamaha Tyros 1.
I bought the Tyros 4, less than 2 months before the Tyros 5 was released.
Lately I've been following Andre Louis's work, paying special attention to
how he uses his instruments etc., and this has made me realise that using an
onboard sequencer can only bring me as far as I am, eventually stagnating.
Therefore I am eager to start sequencing using an external sequencer such as
QWS, because I believe that this can only enhance the quality of my work,
not to mention the new and exciting things it will let me do.
I fiddled around in Sonar for a bit, but realised just how little I know
about midi sequencing.
So, as I plunge into the deep and dark passages of the unknown, please bare
with me as I sometimes stumble over the obvious, asking my way around here
and there.
Any tips would always be welcomed.
All the best
