The stereo I/O + MIDI clock + four independent sequenced FX tracks means you can put MESS after something like your Deluge, SH-4d or wavestate and have it rhythmically mangle the audio — delays, granular effects, filtering, pitch changes, glitches, reverbs etc. — while the sequencer stays synchronised to your setup.
