I can't part with my VFX as it's just wonderful in a dated kinda way.
The TS10 I use for recording (great 24 track sequencer) & stock sounds. If I delve into the programming, VFX sounds can be created on the TS (to a degree) using side by side comparisons but there's just stuff a VFX can create that's lost on the TS10.
I would however love to have an SD-1. Kinda best of both although they're getting pricey.

Vince, thanks! That's great to know. Did you sell your TS? Or do you keep it around for certain things?
