Haha I was going to do that with my computer until I seen how valuable the latest version of Logic Pro X was to me with these new features. I'll be selling Live 10 Suite very soon lol.fisherKing wrote: Fri May 15, 2020 4:23 pm on second thought, think i'll put my computer on the shrine, and start using the MC 50 instead...![]()

I suppose technically my first sequencer was the one built into the E-mu Emax. It barely counts though... it had multiple tracks, but there was no quantize function, no concept of bars and beats. It was basically a very bare bones MIDI data recorder. And for someone like me with a rather poor sense of timing, that didn’t tend to make for a whole lot of usable material.
After that, I got MIDIMac sequencer for the Mac Plus, with an Opcode MIDI interface. That was the program which eventually morphed into Opcode Vision, and I continued to use that up until the point where Gibson devoured Opcode.
There were a few other detours along the way, such as the Roland MC500mkII that my band used when we played live, and my bandmates also had an ESQ1, CZ1, and EPS, all of which had internal sequencers. And a few drum machines. But mostly for me it was Vision, then StudioVision.
Later on, I tried all sorts of different things such as Reason, Orion, Acid, Sonar, and Live. Sonar was my main workhorse after Vision, until Gibson devoured and then destroyed Cakewalk. By that time I had already gradually been moving over to Live, so I stuck with that, plus a cross grade to Cubase which, honestly, I’ve never used much even though I continue to pay for their upgrades. And my Roli Seaboard came with the lite version of Bitwig, which I upgraded to a full version, and continue to dabble. I also bought a MacBook Pro so I could collaborate with friends who use Logic, but I’ve never ended up doing much of that. I also jumped back into Reason a couple of years ago, which is useful now that it can be embedded as a VST in another host.
But after all of that, I’ve mostly resigned myself to Live being my main DAW. The constant insanity of jumping from one host to another is not productive. I would have been perfectly happy to stick with Vision, had it continued to be developed and evolve. Same with Sonar. By the time Cakewalk by BandLab came out, I had already started to get comfortable in Live, and didn’t see the point in switching back. It’s better to commit to one environment and learn to be productive in it, that’s the lesson I’ve gradually, kinda sorta learned over the years.
