Hi Nic, This doesn't fit your requirements because a mouse and monitor are required. But Director-S is the sequencer software that runs on the Roland S-550 sampler. It's a pattern/song based sequencer (no linear tracks). My method of building up events in a pattern (real time recording mode) seems as if it might be adaptable for live performance use. A friend of mine uses a laptop running Cubase (I think) that lets you set up a loop (of one or more measures). But I think that he doesn't do it in real time. Perhaps someone on this list knows of a sequencing package that can be used in this manner?
