I have not had a chance to document all of the problems I encountered trying to build synApps_5_8 with Visual Studio Community 2015. Many of the problems seem to be caused by Makefiles that unconditionally build code that doesn't work on Windows, and therefore are a problem for all versions of Visual Studio. The sequencer is one module that is difficult to build on Windows, but those problems have already been discussed here. Kevin
