Thanks! I'm not sure Cubasis can do time signatures, though. That's a shame because I'm really interested in that one. I'll check out N-Track Studio.

Thanks! I'm really only trying to sequence my PC4-7 to work on ideas. Not for live performance. No audio. So let's disregard stability for a moment. Since you've tried every iOS DAW, do you know which ones allow time signature changes in a long form linear sequence?

Hey there gang! Here in 2024, which iOS DAW is most like a regular DAW in term of long form linear MIDI sequencing? I.E. not pattern based or clip launching? Importantly, I'd like the ability to have odd time signatures, and even change time signatures. I've googled this extensively and the results are often from five to ten years ago. Cubasis? Logic? Auria Pro? Thanks!

Thanks everyone! Super useful info. Much appreciated!

Hey there! I'm thinking about using some iPad sequencers with my Kurzweil PC4-7. I'm considering trying a bluetooth MIDI adapter, such as the Yamaha MD-BT01. If that works out well, I'd likely try using it for controlling iPad synth apps, too. Anyone have any experience with these? Is latency an issue? Not so bad? Thoughts, opinions? Thank you!

Although this isn't perfect, I have to give them credit, I really like the concept of a V Collection sounds without a computer. I wonder if a workaround for low polyphony is to program all the splits and layer into the patch on the computer side of things.

Cup holder on mic stand or iPad stand. Or just a cup.

Totally agree. I think the OP needs something vaguely synthy to dip toes in the water. Yeah maybe Nautilus is too much money for a total beginner. What about an older rompler like a Roland XP-30? Should have some general Moog-y sounds for leads, and other decent pads. Doesn't need the most amazing acoustic piano.

A Bowen Solaris is NOT recommended for a beginner, that synth is a bazillion dollars. Not sure why you guys are recommending vintage keyboards like a DX7 and a Triton to a beginner. On the other hand, the Nautilus makes sense!

I lusted after an SH-5 for many years. But nowadays, my memory (as in my actual brain) is not stellar, so it's hard to justify a preset-free synth. (But not impossible.)

LOL I know it seems ridiculous; I just watched the most recent season of Fargo, and have NOT seen the earlier ones. So it's kind of a spoiler for me. I only realized that because I googled it.

If you're buying a piano, don't you need actual piano movers? It seems like there are kind of too many logistics to be a scam if the seller and you need to agree to a moving date where a contractor needs to show up. Really, very few piano buy actual acoustic pianos in 2024, so I bet that you were the only interested party. And if the piano has some sentimental weight to it, the Mom might just want it to go to a good home where it's going to be used and loved. I think this is a spoiler for a TV show, so do NOT look it up.

As a big fan of Wendy Carlos, I bought the CD box set used off of eBay many years ago. I also have several of Ms. Carlos' album on vinyl, including the record with all the covers on it, including "What's New Pussycat" which was the first Wendy Carlos song I ever heard, and it blew my mind.

Hey just my opinion. I'm not suggesting anybody stop enjoying his stuff just because I think he's annoying. Also, because he is a fantastic musician, that doesn't disqualify him from being "too much." Besides, why should anyone care what I think? I'm not trying to change anyone else's feelings, just seeing if anyone else is annoyed by this guy. No reason anyone should try to change my feelings. Although I guess it's fun for us to try, regarding such an inconsequential topic.
