I think it's a very usable sequencer for everything. 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.
