Vortex Sound Research

Hi I want to get into sequencing and feel like this is more objective to discuss rather than a synth sound. It seems there's lots of info online but everyone has such differing opinions on the best sequencer in this price range. I have a Nord stage 3 which I mainly want to sequence and a Tr8s although that may not be useful? Please shed some knowledge I really can't get anywhere despite hours of researching. Thanks in advance x x
