I did not FSK time code sync until I got a Tascam 80-8. 7 pristine tape audio tracks and 'unlimited' MIDI tracks in Voyetra Sequencer Plus Gold. Porta One was record-bounce-repeat until all I got was mush! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then as now I probably had as much fun trying to get everything to work as I did actual recording. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Turtle Beach thought of it more as a vehicle to move their hardware (soundcards) and not as a viable product in itself. From what I recall it never really caught on big. Don't recall it being heavily marketed (compared to other audio products, though I recall it being advertised in the back pages of Electronic Musician and other magazines). I loved it. I didn't have to buy a MAC to record audio! Soon Cubase & Cakewalk had DAWs that could record audio** on PCs and DOP (which AFAIK never got out of v1) was just left behind. Turtle Beach never further invested in DOP or sold its interests.**maybe they already did and I just didn't have the money to consider them... Maybe my memory's a little murky so might be off on a detail or two, but I went from Voyetra Sequencer Plus Gold to DOP to Sonar 2.x...

Then as now I probably had as much fun trying to get everything to work as I did actual recording. I had that too! It was terrific! I could sync my DAW (Seq +) up to a 24 track machine and add acoustic instrumentation & vocals. In the '80s I enhanced my engineering income by working with a number of Middle Eastern composers/arrangers. I would have them come over to my apartment and we would record all the MIDI parts on Sequencer Plus and then take them into a 24track studio and bounce them to tape. Then we'd record the acoustic parts (hand drums and other percussion, orchestral tracks) then finally the singer would show up and perform his or her vocals. I remember one time the arranger forgot to verify the key of the song with the singer and she couldn't sing it. We had to rerecord all the pitched instruments - the MIDI stuff was easy to fix as I just transposed them in SEQ+ and we redumped them to tape, but there were no decent audio pitch transposers in those days so we had to book more studio time and redo all the strings (real violins, etc.), oud, santor, etc. Eventually my orchestration clients realized that they could buy their own computers and software and learn how to do what I was charging them for. So I gradually transitioned into building custom computer rigs for them and training them how to use them (they were going that route anyway, might as well capture some income from it before it entirely evaporated) - that was how I ended up transitioning into computers, IT and programming. One of my early programs was a database program for an arranger I worked with to track his contacts and expenses.
