I use it for drum stuff in preference to anything else, with smack. http://smack.berlios.de I use it that way for both live use and non-live production. Though live use has so far been limited to just playing alone or small shows to go with talks about smack. I think most of the om-synth crowd use seq24. I think the problem they are suggesting for drum is that there is no drum map i.e notes don't say what they are unlike hydrogen. This really has never been a problem for me. Loki
