Best sequencer UI but tragically lacks midi out – NanoStudio Review

Qualifying statement -- I'm a long time Nanostudio user, early adopter on the iPad 1. I love the linear sequencing UI. I can sequence like lightning here, far faster than my Laptop DAWs like Reason and Cubase. Lack of midi output cripples what could otherwise be a crazy awesome sequencing app. IMO the UI for sequencing is far superior to Cubasis. However I now use Cubasis far more because Nanostudio tragically and perplexingly lacks midi output implementation and I sequence external gear. Basically I sequence in Nanostudio, export midi through nanosync, reimport into Cubasis, and that's the absurd workflow. Sequencing directly in Cubasis is painful by comparison. I am not fond of the Nanostudio sampler/synths, they sound underpowered and cheesy to me. So for no midi out and cheesy synth, 3 stars instead of 5.
