I used version 9.  Corel Draw is normally an expensive application that lists 
for about $500 (sells for less though).  It also includes Corel Paint which 
is about a capable as Photoshop, and includes some other stuff like about 
1600 fonts.  But sometimes if you go to a computer swapmeet you can find it 
selling quite cheaply.  Or in my case, when I bought my computer I had the 
option to pay an extra $100 and get an OEM version of Corel Draw (minus the 
manuals).

>>Just heard your "On Reflection" recorders. - do you plan to put up patch 
sheets for these sounds ?<<

I can probably do that.  It will be my first attempt at using the patchsheets 
myself.  The patch won't be of a lot of use if you don't have a BC3 breath 
controller, or perhaps you'll have to modify it and add to it to play it 
without a BC3.  One other thing I noticed.  All 410 triple filters aren't the 
same.  I patched up an earlier sound so I could play it duophonically using 
two identical sets of modules and set the knobs exactly the same, but one of 
the voices sounded way off and was thin and lame sounding.  It just wasn't 
good.  I ended up having to turn the knobs to different positions on my 
second 410 to match the sound of my first one.  Things like this will cause 
problems especially on such touchy sounds as these.  But once I get the patch 
drawn up I'll post it.

Note: Someone thought the Recorder was done with a square wave.  As hollow as 
it sounds, no square waves were used!  Square waves make things sound too 
much like a clarinet.  But a total of 5 other waveforms were used in those 
patches.
