they´re much better than any DAW button. You can record even with a cheap pocket recorder, or you can play and then sing it.

Don´t start to overthink about buttons, and more buttons. I use Sonar 8 producer, and i'm playing much better now, after i´ve stoped to work with all these buttons.

My brother allways said to me: "I´ve lost a lot of time of my life with buttons. I could be a much better musician than i am".
