	Hi.  I'm planning on writing a ear training program that will drill
and test on intervals, triads, chords, rhythm, etc.  I was planning to use
the GS's internal ensoniq chip, using the commercial programing utility
Sonix (So what! software), but due to the nature of this program and of the 
ensoniq chip this was not feasible ( I cannot produce pitches of controlled
length due to the wavetable nature of the chip.  Only however long the sample
was.).  So now I intend on using MIDI to transmit the note values to a keyboard.
     My question is, is it possible to send midi on/off data using BASIC?
Sorry, but it's what I'm most familiar with currently.  If anyone has any
info, pleas let me know.

			Thanks...
