there are times i'd like to be able to grab the last syllable of the 
verse and MUSICALLY PLAY it in - in some pattern - maybe 32nd's 
sixteenths...

copy paste is just not a very musical way to do things sometimes...

the more power an app has the better...

making new tools is how new music comes to be...

if all of the tools stay the same forever - then music will stay the 
same for equally as long...

i guess it might help to mention that i am quite experimental in my 
productions.  =)

then i would use Ableton =)

i understand - i am talking about doing some out of the ordinary things 
too... cool-crazy things...  that take WAY too long doing it the "old 
fashioned way" - and copy-paste IS old - it's been around since what ?  
'84?  =)  (Classic Mac)

i guess it could seem too redundant for 'regular' or 'ordinary' styles 
of production - but for 'breal-out-of-the-box' composition and 
production... i would kill for it...  well maybe not kill, but possibly 
do questionable things.  =0
