Purchased new on June 26th of 1987 for CAN$ 775.00.
This MIDI sequencer, with its tiny 32 character display and limited
8-track, 15,000 note capacity was the brain behind every project
following its purchase until it was retired. It was replaced by the
Amiga software sequencer Music-X and put in storage until it was traded
for computer equipment in October of 1996.
Too often, the length of songs sequenced with it was determined
completely by the remaining memory at the time a song was being
structured. Several times, songs had to be split into several parts
due to the limited note capacity.
Numerous 'accidents' in programming this little device resulted in
creative splendor, such as the un-expectedly odd-timed seven thousand people
having industrial strength sex.
