Does anyone have recommendations for a sequencer well suited for looping on the fly? I'd like to be able to easily generate, queue and loop sequenced phrases from sysex. Starting and stopping looped sequences might be fairly straightforward, but idealy I would like to see something operate like an EDP where you can copy an idea to a new 'slot' and overdub, then queue up another to start after the current one is finished, etc. Theoretically I suppose this could be done entirely with sysex and a sequencer that supports sysex control of these parameters, has anyone done this? I might not be up on what's out there, but taking a cursory look around I found mainly software sequencers for composing, and the hardware sequencer/tone generator sort. Fun toys all, but just looking for something more specifically suited for me. Thanks!
