It all depends on your MIDI interface.  If it plugs into the cartridge
port, then obviously it won't work.  I imagine we could make the cartridge
have a thru connector for more cartridges but I wonder if it would be worth
it.. as far as working with the SID Stereo player, it *will* work, and will
also be able to take advantage of the extra voices if programmers use it..
Can you imagine games with dolby stereo or surround sound?  I can!  Anyways,
I'll keep you all posted, we have the cartridge nearly done, the biggie
will be the software.  If you have any suggestions for the software, let
me know.. we plan on basing the software on a certain popular, powerful
music program.... ;^)
