	I want to compose music on my Amiga.  Specifically, I want
to compose scores for several instruments (say, a rock band),
and of course be able to playback and edit individual tracks.
Since I deal in metal music, I need to be able to choose my own
instrument sounds (metal/distorted electric guitar, electric bass,
etc.).

	The problem I have when looking at programs is that they seem
to do a lot more than this.  Or am I missing something?  What programs
are out there to do simple music composition?  MIDI interfacing (for
example) just isn't relevant to me (unless I misunderstand what MIDI 
is (likely)).

	Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
