Hi,
I am looking to buy an alesis performance pad or roland spd-s or something of the like so that i can hook it up to mainstage via MIDI and play samples from behind my drum kit.
I was wanting to know if you could set a sequence of notes to be played by a pad, for example, if i were to hit pad 1 once it would play, say, a C1, then if i were to hit it again E1, then for a third time, G1 and finally for a fourth time, C2 and then when i hit it for a fifth time the sequence would reset back to C1 to play the sequence of 4 notes when i choose to.
If possible i'd like to be able to do this for more than 4 notes as well.
Its basically so i can get something like this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_zUoMlMX8U
If you watch you'll see every time he hits a pad it plays a different note for the amount of notes in his sequence.

Sorry for the long message,
any help is appreciated

Mainstage doesn't have a sequencer, so no you can't do this. You can set something for this functionality in Logic's environment.
