LTA productions FORTE II is a comprehensive, multipurpose 32 track sequencer.
Despite the wide variety of functions it offers, Forte II remins easy to use, thanks to detailed context-sensitive help.

Forte II's Track screen displays 16 tracks at a time, and allows you to change mutings, velocity offsets, and MIDI channels before or during playback. Each take is saved in a recording buffer, so you dont have to decide which track to use until after youve finished recording. And the program asks for confirmation before overwriting a track with a new take. The punch-in facility is particularly versatil, offering the options of comparing takes on different tracks.
