Since there's no on board sequencer, which in my opinion is the biggest mistake in the last decade in musical instruments. Why did you cut it out? I do not believe that notion everybody's using computers these days, montage, motif, are computers too, are they not? Some of us are not as good as you & Bert so we need on board sequencing to help us fix stuff after recording down to each & every midi note.
Sometimes we want to get away from the computer sir Yamaha. I waited so long because I wanted the next Motif with everything plus more. I'm still undecided, so Mr Angelo here's your chance to convince me (Hint - Stay away from that Knob) we are not all into insane Musical sounds, we need some clean electric & acoustic guitars, some good piano riffs without all the major 7ths 9th 13th etc...Regular music is still good man. Give us a few minutes without touching that knob please. Some of that crazy stuff don't even sound musical & I doubt you would listen to that crap on a good day driving along the coasts just cruising. Don't fall for it sir. Most of the world wants good quality sounds, not distorted animalistic sounds for unearthly beings. I use Logic & Maschine & I will never give them up, cubasis is not user friendly, it is not intuitive, not bashing because I wish I knew how the damn thing works, but please make sure we understand how this will integrate with my DAW of your choice. Thank you.
