Patches and discussion for Ensoniq VFX family

Greetings,

     I'm new to this forum, just sign up today,  and had been using 
the VFXSD-1 as a midi controller and sound module. Being that  
it is not a general midi instrument (I would prefer to lay down my 
tracks in general midi), would anyone here have a suggestion for 
which midi controller I should use or buy. I generally use Vision 
software for sequencing on a Mac G3 and use the Opcode 
Studio 4 as a midi intertface. I also use a Proteus 1XR and 
Roland JV 880 as sound modules.

I never heard of a VFXSD-2, is that a general midi instrument?
