IIRC, Cakewalk for DOS and Voyetra Sequencer Plus for DOS were both released in 1987.

"Cakewalk’s first sequencer experience was the Voyetra Sequencer Plus for DOS."
 
Typo?

 
I know some are STILL using this...

I think that was their FIRST EXPERIENCE of a sequencer...not that Cakewalk was the creator/programmer...
someone at Cake might have been involved....back in '75....

Voyetra was founded in 1975 by Carmine J. Bonanno, an industry expert and pioneer in music synthesis and PC multimedia sound technology. From 1975-79, as Octave Electronics, Inc., the company designed, manufactured and marketed analog music synthesizers, competing with Moog and ARP, the industry leaders at that time. In 1979, Octave merged with Plateau Electronics, a leading NY-based synthesizer repair facility. The company was renamed Octave-Plateau Electronics, Inc. In addition to manufacturing music synthesizers, Octave-Plateau became a well-known synthesizer repair facility, servicing professional musicians and recording studios in the New York City metropolitan area.

I think Cakewalk for DOS and Voyetra Sequencer Plus for DOS were both released in 1987.
 
 
My guess is that the typo would be fixed like this:
 
"Cakewalk’s current CEO's first sequencer experience was the Voyetra Sequencer Plus for DOS."
