Yes I am replying to my own post…
I think we can skip songmode for the digis if “composition/playfree mode” is a thing.
The ability to swap between individual sequences per track is very much still in the performance mindset but achieves a lot of the desires of this thread.
I also can’t imagine how complicated this would be to arrange/songmodeify on the digis… so maybe this isn’t songmode after all.
It’s an evolution of how to perform on the digis.
But I can also see the need for global changes to be played back.
Kind of like a live record for the entire machine. Being able to replay a unique performance sounds powerful indeed.
We could call this… “total recall” haha
playfree/total recall sounds like it’s still aligned to performing.
Each project could have a “performances” folder.
You would still need to prepare/practice quite a bit before recording a performance
