fortunately you don't need the best mac ever to run Numerology as a  
MIDI sequencer. any AUs you host will be a bit more processor  
intensive of course.

it can be MIDI slave, but generally if you let it be your master you  
can exploit the more mind-bending aspects of its approach to time.

it would be a perfect companion to the MOTM MIDI-CV interface. i am  
personally looking forward to those being available.

the Encore Expressionist would also be nice, you could dedicate 4 of  
the gate outputs to reference clock pulses (bar, beat, eighth,  
sixteenth) so ridiculously easy in Numerology inside the Clock group,  
and then save that project as a template so every time you make a new  
file that aspect of your setup is always ready.

or even a "random clock" where it would send a pulse a few times in a  
16 bar period, and then even set that sequencer to reset every 16  
bars (Numerology sequencers have hardsync), so you can have something  
that's random yet have that predictable aspect if you'd like it. some  
of the things you can do with the program become almost-generative  
probability games ... which is extremely useful.
