A friend of mine bought six (6) of them... The sound is very good. Much
better than the old MT-32 type sound (slightly noisy) I expected to hear.
The unit is also MPU-401 compatible so most software (all I've seen so far)
intended for the MPU-401 works with it.

Good stuff. Certainly much better the awful IBM Music Feature I bought. I
still can't understand how to write code for the Music Feature.

The list price for the LAPC-1 is $595....todd
