Step Sequencers - why do they have to be so conformist?

[Tony Scharf]

Depends on what you need brought to the table.  Also, in the case of the
dark time,  its only one part of a larger system.  The magic will come in
what you can do by using its various clock inputs and outputs with other
modular components.  Its modular, so you can't really judge it on its own.
It needs the context of a larger system.

At the time I could not remember the name of the sequencer that does impress

Hardware people: would these extra simple features be expensive to produce,
hence the reason why current step sequencers follow a tried and tested
design?  I know from a software point of view, these extras would not be
that difficult to implement..
