The MD can certainly be used to sequence external gear.  You can use all 16
tracks (machines) for sequencing that way, although that would be a horrible
waste of the sound potential of the MD.

Personally, I would use the MD to sequence some very basic stuff on the
Nord, use your keyboard controller to play the Nord if you want.

If you want 909 sounds, I agree with the others - this won't mimic a 909.
But truly...do we NEED more 909 sounds?  I'm ready for something new...I
don't know about the rest of you.

Another box that would compliment the MD well would be the TBS Syncussion,
aka Vermona drmMkII.  I wouldn't mind having one of those myself, for that
real analog punch.  But the MD is truly a wonderful box, and as Joeri (or
was it Boele?) said, that new TRX B2 kick is GREAT!

I'm currently using the MD as a clock slave (GASP - and NO Crashes!) to my
software sequencer - Digital Performer.  I'm running it with a Waldorf Q and
some other outboard gear.  But the heart (and soul) of my setup - the MD,
the Q, and my Powerbook with MTPAV via USB.  A great setup.

You'll love your MD.
