there are also ways to really use a sequencing program differently and come
up with weirder stuff - you gotta' break the rules and stuff - one thing to
do is use a sequencer with a sampling keyboard and don't use normal musical
samples - also using the looping feature on a sequencer can be fun - for
example having different tracks be different lengths but looping them all -
also playing back normal sequences on keyboards that aren't set up with the
right sounds

Subject: [idm] sequencing is lame
is there any software out there that
allows for composition without a sequencer?
-------------------------------------------------
yes.
dig into www.cycling74.com (not for pc users / mac only)
max/msp, thats where its at. I am usng the lloopp player, you'll find it in
the annotaed guide to max and msp extras, I was using buzz but decided that
the more free-form real-time processing availible is much more interesting,
I have the same sentiment towards sequencers. If your into the mego school
of thought i really suggest you look into max/msp and also nato- msp objects
that allow you to fuck up video. So I quess next people are going to
complain about video artists using nato who have no offical video or film
schooling. Man you guys, fucking relax, you all sound like my dad. actually
my dad's been dead for a long time.
Anyhow all the max/msp stuff tends to lean into more micro stuff, so most of
you prob. wont have much interest, personally I dont care all that much
about how well trained a person is, I am more interested in the ideas and
process behind something then how perfectly arragned it is. (hint- all the
punks are over at microsound). hehehe.
after all, we are all going be food for worms soon enough, so lighten up on
the boring threads, and maybe I'll spell check one of these posts one day.
