Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

I envisioned the sd-1 sequencer working differently
when I was told it had 12 loopable sequence tracks and
12 song tracks.  I expected to be able to lay down a
looping sequence of arbitrary length and it would keep
looping, meanwhile I could lay down abother loop and
it would sequence, etc.  Obviously I was wrong, but
I'd still like to be able to do that.  For example,
lay down a drum track, loop it, lay down a bass track,
loop it. and so on (drums a bass both playing now). 
Then maybe go back to the drum track and add in a
high-hat.  Then play along with rythmn guitar, etc. 
Then program it all to sequence correctly (maybe chage
to a different drum loop occationally).  So my
question is:  what equipment do I need to be able to
do that easily?  Do others find the sequencer to be
limiting?  Do you have "tricks" to get it behave as
you want?

This isn't meant to be a criticism, just a search for
new ideas.

Thanks for any replies
