i'm looking for someone with experience using both of these programs who can tell me how they differ.

i'm familiar with fruity loops as a sample-based drum sequencer and i'm looking for something similar on mac.

is ultrabeat the same in that i can sequence patterns using samples (that i've recorded) to make the rhythm track for an entire song (i.e. not just individual patterns that can be pasted into a track, but a long sequence of patterns to make a whole rhythm line from start to finish?).

thanks!
