But that doesn't seem nearly as cool as putting the switcher/delay in line before the sequencer input. That way, the midi delay effect would be recorded in your sequence and you could turn it on and off at will. It would also be in effect for any selected device, so you wouldn't have to repatch if you change channels/synths. If one really wanted to go sick, one might patch in a button to turn the delay on and off, and set it's in definition as , say, C7, so one could automate the effect whilst one played. Lets see...Logic..Performer..Logic ..Perfomer. I'll have to go with Logic, I think it's...um..better.
