Is a sequencer worth getting?

I have read various producers raving about sequencers but I’m not exactly sure what they do compared to an arp?



Does anyone use one, if so which one and are they any good?



Thanks

Sugar Bytes Thesys is a pretty good sequencer plugin. I personally like sequencers as I find they can help you sketch ideas quickly. My favourite, though, was and still is the Matrix sequencer from Reason. I wish I could get this as a plugin!

Thanks for that!



I’ll check it out.

No problem! If you have an iPad, Genome MIDI is a great little touch sequencer that gives you the bonus of a ‘hands on’ approach that is fun to mess about with. I’ve been getting into this a bit more lately.
