I quickly cheked the feature list for Non-DAW on their website.
Although the feature you described is listed, it doesn't really say if it
eases the composition part. It looks to me like you need to have a clear

What if you would like to try out different arrangements quickly - can you
confirm or infirm if that is the case?
