Subject: How do you use the step sequencer

From: "tuskermusic" <tuskerfort@...>

Ok, I admit it. I avoided it for the last 3 years.

I just played my notes and stayed away from the arpeggiator and the
step sequencer. I preferred the control I have by playing them
myself. So I tried the step sequencer out and it was fun. But I am
sure I am not any good at this because of my tendency to try play
everything.

So how about some tips?

What settings do you use?

Do you make your own seq programs?

Which parameters are your favorites to morph (so far, mine are filter
cutoff, sync pitch, noise, and filter envelope decay)?

Do you use the knobs to "tune" the sequence? How in heaven's name do
you get any accurate results in real time?

Do you have any advice for a step sequencer newbie?
Thanks,

Jerry
