I agree with Bob that Shatterday is a very nice piece of work and thanks for sharing the information. For studio work and music production I used my on-board sequencer only for about a year or so after purchasing my VFX-SD, at which point I was introduced to Cakewalk and computer sequencing. That was in 1990 and I have used Cakewalk for my sequencing ever since.
My point ..?
I was indeed blown away that you had accomplished that block of work using only the VFX-SD on-board sequencer. After being introduced to Cakewalk I realized that the on-board sequencing was some what time constraining. Perhaps that is because ones talents may be directly proportional to those perceived time constraints. So the fact that you only used the on-board sequencer well, very impressive at least to me. :)

I just listened to 4 x 30sec clips of the Shatterday album on the Tower Record site....great stuff....I want to buy it. And now I know my VFX can make all those relaxing and sad sounds when a talented captain is at the helm.....
