Anyone else out there used Alchimie Jr.? I downloaded this from the MIDI RT
on GEnie...it is a shareware (non-crippled) sequencer that appears (I'm
rather new at MIDI) to be immensely powerful. Supports 256 tracks (why would
anyone _possibly_ need this many, when limited to 16 MIDI channels?),
quantization, elaborate grid/piano roll note display, full multi-tasking
(most any function can be performed while the sequencer is playing or
recording), multi-windowed user interface, MIDI file import/export, and
full (though somewhat mangled English) documentation. The authors claim
they've spent two and a half years developing Alchimie, and I can believe
it. Nothing seems to be missing. Registration is only $25. I'll try to
get it to atari.archive.
