Not necessarily. Unless it has changed since FCS1, it is a glorified sample playback device. If all you want to do is loop and layer some samples, then it does a fine job at that. However, it is not a tool for musical composition or recording, which is what I believe Greg is looking for. (EDIT: I saw this before Greg's second post. Considering what his response was, i think you are right that STP is what he needs to do what he wants.)
Layering someone else's pre-made samples is not the same as scoring, the same way a DJ is not a musician. I'll use STP for something quick, if need be... but for any real scoring -- like two short films I am currently scoring for -- it is about composing every single note myself, and essentially performing each of those notes (via sequencing, of course) in a tool like (in my case) Logic.
