Goal

Organise groups of events at a high level.

Motivation

DAWs like Ableton Live, Bitwig, FL Studio and others enable you to work with a group of events called a "clip" in a loop, to then later arrange this clip alongside other clips on a global timeline. That's very handy for when you've got too many events to manage individually. Swap out the surgical knife for a chainsaw.

Implementation

There's lots of reference to draw from here. Bitwig does a good job at this I find.

It can even combine that with effects and and a clip view, all in one screen, without being overwhelming.

Live does something similar that also works well.

As does Helio.

And Cubase.

Both Cubase and Logic are able to draw both arrangement and event editor at the same time, drawing events from the currently selected clip in the arrangement view, which I especially like and think could be a good fit for Sequentity as well.
