I've heard that that's basically how he treated his fellow musicians in the studio.

He'd be literally pointing at a guitarists fretboard while he played to show him what notes and chords he wanted them to hit and at what time. yes

Same with the drummers.

Actually the programmed drums do sound like the sort of thing Chad Wackerman would be forced to play.

This does sound like the stuff I used to create on the Acorn Archimedes computer's music program in 1992.

The horn samples sound a lot more realistic than the marimba ones or whatever it is they're supposed to be.

At least everyone knew that he was studio fascist.

When he was in the MoI in the late '60s, Lowell George made the mistake of suggesting they record a song he'd written and Zappa said "well, go and start your own band" and fired him on the spot. Tee Hee
