I wanted to post this as an example of a non trained self taught "by ear" player. If I hear it I can play it even if I have to slow the sequence down.

Do what you do using the tools you have to the limits of the technology and your own talent.

For me its not playing, its all about songwriting. That's my passion. If it were not for sequencers I would have much better chops.....But slow the tempo and play that pentatonic scale and sound like anyone........on a recorded medium. Live is a whole other ballgame. Id play the piano part there but track the rest on this song,
