That’s a plan. That’s my setup, although I do use a lot of SPi sounds - there’s good stuff in there. And the sample playing abilities are really good. For instance, drum/percussion patterns - just as good playing samples from within SPi as on a separate box - unless it’s to use a more delicate thing like Aria Player with lots of multi-level samples.
You’ve not asked for this but if you’re interested in percussion a pattern stuff, I’ll point you a this (long) topic General Purpose Drumkit - #51 by soxsa which ends I think with something like the current code I’m using - and it’s proved it’s worth. Myself, I’m a lot happier coding with this than tapping button combinations on some dedicated box. SPi is just so much more flexible too.
Might spark some ideas, and incidentally uses functions called from within threads within loops
