so i've been using LSDJ for a while and, after having a good look at nanoloop, its matrix sequencing system, and a few of its features, i'm thinking of buying it, but i'd prefer not to make an investment like that without knowing what i'm getting into. anyone with nanoloop want to testify? anything really good/bad about it?

Throw a demo rom on your flashcart and try it out.

If you're really into using effects commands in lsdj (as opposed to focusing only on the instrument screen) you may find you're not into it. The overall sound possibilities are at least equal.

The main concern imo is whether or not you like the interface for nanoloop; personally, I find it really unintuitive and difficult to use after coming from a tracker-style interface such as LSDJ. Horses for courses!

Use both.
Agreed. Both do great things. My go-to is LSDJ, but, especially with the release of the cheaper nanoloop 1.6, you may as well try it out. 2.x is different and can achieve different sounds, but is over twice as much. In my opinion, you can't ever have too many tools in your arsenal.

I wrote an FAQ here a while ago about the differences between the two. It is a bit out of date but you might want to give it a look.

Your tunes on nanoloop will probably be much different from the LSDJ ones. It's another way of making music, reading music and thinking music.
btw: nanoloop synched to LSDJ = ABSOLUTE FUN.

Actually there's a good bit of water all over, for instance in the ocean, so if you live in the ocean, then boats.

I don't like the interface in the new version of cars. Until they change it back I'm going to stick with boats.
