Here's the deal. I've been away from sequencing since the ESQ-1 (maybe a proteus in college). I'm now a choral director and considering using some midi things as accompaniment. Specifically I would like to sequence some pitched percusion parts for use with live brass accompaniment. However, rather than let it play and take chances with geting ahead or behind it and also having the luxury of rubato and ritards now and then I would like to explore recording the sequences, quantizing and then controling with tap tempo....I've read a little here and there but would like the long and short of it from this forum if possible. Is it possible for me to record say 8 tracks of pirched and non-pitched percussion in several different meters and control the tempi with a tap controler (either footpedals or keyboard)?....If so can you steer me to a product. Please keep in mind I'm not looking for a machine to average tempo for me I'm looking to control tempo step by step.
