Overview of different people's workflow and some speculation

As I work with this program, I am wondering what other people's workflow is.  Do they stick with Synfire Pro and then port over to DAW only at end.  Are they staying totally in Synfire Pro? What is the scope of MIDI setups they are using  (4 ports X 16)? Are they using only virtual instruments? 

Do they go back/forth between software programs.  Say export MIDI to a DAW, clean/fix/modify something, then import back into Synfire Pro for additional work.  This software really teaches you how to think and visualize music in a different way.  When I first got Harmony Navigator, I would create a progression and accompianment, bring over to Logic. After some playing/modifying, I would go back to HN2 alter a chord or two, or drop in a verse with some alternate chords.  Just the shifting of that perspective, made the arrangement better, and I could cut down the amount of instruments and notes needed.  (I read in an Arranging book, all notes should have a purpose, if they don't  DELETE it). 

Andre, I'd love to hear your design philosophy, and what you had in mind as you created this. I'm sure it will give us all insight into the scope of how to use it..  And I suppose, because of the amount of tools you have created, some people will use it ways, that originally didn't occur to you.  

Two years ago I bought a Yamaha Tyros.  The average age of Tyros customers is 60's.  99% of customers use it as a 'one man b and'  That's how Yamaha treats it.  As I looked through it's MIDI SETUP pages, I realized there was a ton of features, and 'hooks' the user could access.  The original software creator had a lot more in mind than a 'one man band'

I eventually found his 'manifesto' for writing the software on the web somewhere, it definetly gave me more insight and perspective on the machine.  After reading his thoughts and insightsI devised a way to play/overdub parts from different styles, to record/cut/paste whole sections in Logic. Or record 4 passes of a bass part in different styles, Cut into half bar phrases, and paste merge to create a part no style could come close to duplicating. I've called Yamaha a couple of times asking very detailed questions about the inner mechanisms of the software, They have no answer, only the creator in Japan could answer that, they don't have access to him. 

I see even more potential here.  This is like 'photoshop' for music, There is an abundant amount of tools, and different ways to approach and realize a solution. The permutations seem boundless, and I get a bet overwhelmed by what you have created here. 

The more  we all share and contribute our discoveries, approaches, the more informed we will all become.
