OK, guys... I've just started reading these two groups and I've just bought
a synth - a Yamaha PSS680 (flames > /dev/null - the cashola is in short supply
right now).

What I want to do is to sequence the PSS-680 from a PC (specifically a 10MHz
Turbo-AT(286) clone.

What hardware and software do I need? I have no great need to do anything ut
sequence (I don't play the black and white keyboard too well) so I need to
input from score so a score-type display would be ideal.
Public domain for the software would be nice but not mandatory.

Warning: The limit of my knowledge of midi and synths extends to their
	spelling and no further :-).

Incidentally, the PSS-680 is 16 midi-channel and is multi-timbral if that info
is of any use.

Thanks in advance!
