	Akaka Falls 98 (Copyright 1998 A. Dominguez, Spain). A single instance of Seq-303 controls a Yamaha TG-77, with realtime transpositions added via a MIDI keyboard. Overdubs of sampled Mellotron sounds round out the piece. The overall effect is very reminiscent of early Tangerine Dream. This is an excerpt from a six-minute song. Download Akaka Falls 98.wav (439K, ADPCM compressed) here. You can hear more of Angel's work on his home page.
	Seq-303 Demo (Grant Davies, USA). Multiple instances of Seq-303 are used to control an AWE-32 and Yamaha CS1x. The result is a cool little bassline and breakbeat loop. Download Seq-303 Demo.wav (295K) here.
	Fall (Angel Dominguez, Spain). More T-Dreamish stuff from Angel, created with Arp-X8. Amazingly, he created this within 15 minutes of downloading the program, using Arp-X8 and a Yamaha SY-55. (And more than a little talent, too.) Download Fall.wav (500K) here.

	Rich Machine (Jim Johnson, USA) At long last.. some music by the creator of Techno Toys! This was created using Arp-X8 and XG-909. The MIDI output from these two programs was imported into Cakewalk, where some very minor edits were applied; then the resulting sequence was played using a modular synth, an SH-101, and an XG chip on a computer motherboard. You'll have to download this one (3 meg), since we're not set up to stream, yet.
	Dreamtime (Dave Wright, USA) Multiple instances of Seq-303 controlling a stack of real and virtual analogs, including Doepfer, Blacet, and Nord modulars, a pair of Roland monosynths, and a Paia Fatman. This is one of my favorites. Listen to dreamtime.mp3 here, or hear more of Dave's music on his web page.
	Crickets In Tents (Andrew Scheidler, USA). Live improvisation using "a Toshiba laptop, Seq-303, MicroWave XT, headphones and half a brain". Yeah, right. Electronic music with a strong beat and a hard edge. Listen to intents.mp3 here.
	Dirge (Dave Wright, USA). Industrial music created with Seq-303, a Doepfer/Blacet modular, and a cellphone scanner. Don't play this one for your mother! Listen to dirge.mp3 here, or hear more of Dave's music on his web page.

Hush (Copyright 1998 Jason Flaherty, USA). A five-minute techno song created using Seq-303 and other programs. According to the composer, "All synth modulation and much of the actual music is being played by Seq-303 through a Soundblaster AWE64." Jason has created links to three different versions of this song, optimized for 28K, 56K, or T1 connections. You can hear more examples of Jason's music on his home page.

Start/stop/continue (Copyright 1997 if.then.else, USA). A "down tempo heavy groove with a bit of funk" piece created with six instances of Seq-303 in combination with several analog sequencers, all controlling a large collection of modular synths, analog synths, and drum machines. Link to start/stop/continue here, or hear more music by if.then.else at his home page.

	Tough Machine (Hiroaki Shigetomi, Japan). A frenetic bass line and simple drums provide a foundation for gauzy pads. Hiroaki created the sequencer parts in Seq-303, then transferred them to Cubasis for editing and further overdubs. Download ToughMachine.mid (82K) here. Contact Hiroaki through his home page to let him know what you think of his music.
	NSYNC SYS1 (Copyright (C) 1997 Paul A. Fishwick). Percussion parts and marimba arpeggios from Seq-303 are combined with keyboard pads and Awe Toy effects in this excellent example of the capabilities of General MIDI. This 6 minute song starts out with a scary percussion assault that soon gives way to a more atmospheric mix. Download NSYNC SYS1.mid (198K) here, or go to Paul Fishwick's home page for more examples of his work.
	Losing My Mind (Stephen Ray Martin, Anaheim, California). Recorded live from five instances of Seq-303 (with some minor edits made in Cakewalk to improve consistency across different GM synths). A simple sequence repeats on fretless bass and guitar, while a lead synth part jams on top. The lead part was created by switching between several different sequences in real-time.

gm midis (arp-x8)

	PianoFuse (Geoff Nossiter, UK). Neo-classical piano by a member of the Nuno Cage collective.This piece wa performed in real-time using Arp-X8, with final edits done in Cakewalk. Download PianoFuse1.mid here, or listen to more music by Nuno Cage (much of it created with Seq-303 and Arp-X8) at their web page.
	GuitarFuse (Geoff Nossiter, UK). Same program, different approach. In this piece, Geoff used cut and paste techniques in Cakewalk to create a short piece from a much longer improvisation done in Arp-X8. Download Guitar_Fuse_1.mid here.

The Nervous Filter. This shows how Seq-303 can control the AWE-32's filter using NRPN messages. This file contains three parts - hi-hat, kick drum/scratch, and a burbling filtered bass - that were created with three instances of Seq-303. The resulting music was then copied via the Clipboard to Cakewalk, where some extra measures were deleted, and the volume fade at the end was added. Download The Nervous Filter.mid (23K, AWE-32 Only) here.

An Uncomfortable Noodle in a Diminished Stew. Recorded live from three instances of Seq-303, with minimal editing in Cakewalk. Two filtered acoustic guitars provide a hypnotic background drone, while a high-pitched vibraphone tries to find a place to fit in. This illustrates real-time interaction with the timing controls, as well as transposition from an external keyboard. Download An Uncomfortable Noodle in a Diminished Stew.mid (28K, AWE-32 Only) here.
