Dynamic Studio (w/BUILT-IN Graphic editing - VERY convenient!) 8. M (not a sequencer, but a very powerful MIDI utility) 9. And I heard that Texture was out- though I haven't seen it yet. A couple of months ago, I talked to a rep. from Dr. T's - He says that Amiga sales are doing very well hence their decision to release their entire line of products for it! Obviously SOMEONE thinks the AMIGA can handle it. Overall, I think the ST is probably the better computer for MIDI applications due to the fact that it is so highly supported. BUT, that does NOT mean that I'd buy an ST. I believe a good computer has a well-rounded scope of software -the Amiga has this quality. So, whereas the Amiga has less MIDI software, it has much more of everything else, so, I bought an Amiga and, for MIDI purposes, it is absolutely fine. -Jon Deutsch INTERNET BITNET
