[Ensoniq-VFX-SD] Projected Battery Life/sequencer

2005-01-02 by Jay Barnes

I was just yesterday wondering the same thing. 
Usually original batteries in electronics are longer
lasting than replacement batteries.  In particular
items like watches.  I was thinking about changing
mine but I think I'll wait.  I've got a bigger
problem. My sequencer went down.  Of course my
sequences are apparently lost too.  Anyone have any
idea if there is a download somewhere to reload the
sequencer?  That's the one disc I don't have. 
Naturally!
