>does anyone know of a simple, decent, easy sequencer/programmer, >specifically for drums tracks of the d'n'b variety? any/all help >appreciated. thanks. I recently found this little program (PC) called Amen (beta 1.0). It splits up a breakbeat and then replays the bits (offsets) with the aid of a small sequencer that generates random sequences : then you can export the .wav file that is created. Once you get used to it you can have alot of fun with it (it is a beta and there's no help files etc. you just have to work it out for yourself : and listen to the Amen break that comes with it going round and round!!! No MIDI though : http://www.harmony-central.com/Software/Windows/zs-1-amen.html If you want MIDI then there's Wavesurgeon which cuts up .wav files into single sounds and then produces a MIDI template for them so that you can import directly into your sampler etc. If you want the MIDI template function though you have to buy it!! (I think its only about £20(?)). http://www.wavesurgeon.com/ Hope these help, Mark.
