Do you pair your Nerdseq with another sequencer?

Ah cool! How do you find recording them? Gates intact etc? I always find recording into the Nerdseq a bit on the tedious side (mainly with the record monitoring situation)

Yeah, it can be a bit tedious, but I am really glad to be able to do it at all. Creating ideas that I like is the difficult part for me. If I have to work to arrange them, so be it. I'd rather do it this way than have to involve a laptop. Testing different arrangements with NerdSeq and being able to tweak at every stage makes for a fluid creation.

I appreciate having a mix of options from random through very explicit, though I absolutely understand depaffect’s point about finding relief in being able to focus on just one. It is all-too-easy to get spread too thin.

This is a great point. I used to pair Nerdseq with Metropolis, which I'd owned for about 6 years, so I could operate it with my eyes closed.
I sold Metropolis to get Metropolix, and although you can pretty much use it just like Metropolis, it is far more complex and it's taking a lot of time to understand the full implications of. I bought it secondhand. I'm kind if understanding why somebody might have sold it, now. I do really like it, though. It will be interesting to see whether it is still in my rack for the next 6 years.

Nerdseq is quite complex, but I do find it easy to use. I'm not using it to its full potential, though. I'm generally under utilising the CV16 expander.
