I use my kronos for live 1 man performances and I need a spare sequencer to have for a back up in case of kronos failure. I really enjoy the korg sequencers is there a unit a can get (not a computer) to fill this role? Thanks

Sure, there are lots to choose from. An AKAI MPC for example, but I don't quite get why your looking for a Sequencer to get you out of a hole if your KRONOS does.

If your KRONOS dies, what good is a Sequencer?

Wouldn't you be better off with an Audio solution that can play back your sequences as Audio files in the event your KRONOS dies. At least that way there's no difference in the sound you can produce on a night.

So maybe a small HDR is better suited. A Zoom R8 ot R16 for example>

Regards
Sharp.

I'm sorry I didn't fully explain. I could carry a jv 1010 with a hardware sequencer and finish a gig. the 2 (jv 1010 and sequencer) would be less to carry than another keyboard, not to mention cheaper

I've used an old Yamaha QX-3 before. You can probably find one fairly cheap on E-bay.
