jmasno5You are Correct!

Ha...I think I had Voyetra as far back as '94 or so IIRC.
Little purple or magenta colored square boxes being midi measures that would blink when playing.
Back then, I had 2 R/R decks (Teac 3440S & Fostex Model 80), a Roland JV-30 (still my controller) and Voyetra.
What could be better....I was in creative heaven. :)
 
Cool pic of the floppies and manual.
My my....things have changed.
A great day to all.

We still use knotted rope here....

Those things are a bear to get unknotted when they get wet aren't they? 

I remember my 5 years old nephew in '95 looking at the monitor and looking confused asked 'does it really weigh 12 Tonnes?', and being impressed that he know what a Tonne was, just not how to spell it (either spelling).

Did you tell him it's a machine for making heavy music? 

I started with cakewalk on the Atari ST, had to solder on another 512k of memory onto the motherboard 'cos it was a memory hog and needed 1MB.

Fellow Sonarians, we have a winner! Congratulation Shambler. You take the "Cake"walk with this one. You practically invented the modern DAW. LOL.

Not quite. Shambler is messing with you. "Cakewalk" on the Atari was a video game, not a DAW.
 
Well, actually neither was Cakewalk 1.0 for DOS. It was a MIDI sequencer, not a DAW.

Yep, and we had to have a special soundcard that could handle General MIDI to use it!  

OK,
 
760K & 1.4K = These are probably MIDI files and a $5.00 USB Drive is the Fix.  I tested this and it's no problem.
 
btw - (going waybac here) you know they make a USB disk emulator for the Ensoniq Mirage!  Its not your average IBM floppy. 
 
Now how about those funky cat crys I sampled and put into my 26 minute pre-house jam?  It's a 16bit .CWB file.
I get this error...
"Could not open file.  The file may be damaged [it works in my cats computer (don't go there, its a long story) , an XP with SONAR 4] or incompatible with this version of SONAR.  You may attempt to recover this file in safe mode...  [never worked]"
