I'm very curious to know what sync problems you are having with the Doepfer Shaltwerk. That machine is a top of the line integrated live sequencer and quite frankly I don't know of any other midi or CV sequencer that has that much live tweakable control in it. In the US they are not cheap and I've never heard from any user about any sync problems. Given what you must have paid for it I'd seriously look into why you are experiencing problems with it before I went out and bought another machine. It could be malfunctioning or you could have it set up wrong but either way you owe it to yourself to look into using that fabulous machine before dumping it. I know many serious synth musicians who swear that is one of the best live sequencers around and then do all sorts of syncing via midi, CV/gate triggering, etc as well as slaving other machines to the Shaltwerk. In other sequencers on the low end I've used an Alessis MMT8 and Kawaii Q80 extensively. I wrote a comparison between the two here: http://www.voicenet.com/~legion/mmt8.htm which should give you some ideas on the features and live use. These days I mostly use machines with integrated sequencers or arpeggiators in them. The Korg ER1 drum machine has the classic roland X0X style 16 step programming systems as well as some amazing internal sounds. The MAM SQ16 also has this and is a stand alone midi sequencer which might be worth a look. ____________________________________________________________________ HELP WANTED PRODUCTIONS - Http://www.voicenet.com/~legion "Bringing you the best in Organic Electronic music since we started..."
