I like the 'combine-the-small-apps' idea more if I compare the preferences apps R5 versus Zeta. A good idea would be a more user friendly Cortex with some basic building blocks available right from the start (can be 3rd party).
For a MIDI sequencer I'd wish something that could correct my input from a midi keyboard (who plays perfectly?) by generating a tempo-track and make it visually easy to adjust notes or re-record a selection (maybe multiple times in a row and later choose the best option). Also I'd like to see what I'm hearing that means the time-line should be displayed in sync with the notes being played (and be adjustable).
I like 3Dmix globally, you can do more with it then you might think (like realtime pitchshifting and timestretching!) witch is a bad thing because it's somewhat hidden, but it's also very smooth in dragging wave-files to the right spot. It draws waveforms also very fast. The zoom slider is excellent but I'd need start stop pause rewind controls (space for start / stop) (kill the the fiscking looping). (VST) sfx plugin support would also be great together with 'freezing' tracks. 'Everything' should be recordable and later editable, the 3D-mixing is what I'm thinking of. Would be nice if it would listen to midi controllers and smoothing those 127 steps (or use 14bit). Selection(!), be able to resize that 'global' selection (SampleStudio versus Coldcut) and have local selections for sfx/testing but that's maybe overkill.
