Hi, two things, both relating to music program:
1:  What is a good music program out there by music program I mean:
	A:  I can enter notes
	B:  I can manipulate the notes (volume, size, instrument, etc)

	I'd also like to to be quick (I dont like the window refresh
time in DMCS, but I don't like the volume etc limitations of Sonix.

2:  Is there any music program out there that allows more than 4 voices
simultaneously (without hardware uphgrade)?  I was thinking since it is
possible to mix digitized sounds (like DMCS instruments) wouldn't it be
possible to mix them on the fly to play more than one instrument per
channel?  Or would there be too many time and memory constraints?  Just
a thought.

Also for whatever music programs there are a seperate player is a must,
preferable something that can just play the music from cli/WB without
lots of gadgets,windows,etc  also someway to incorporate text in time to
the music, such as maybe a bouncing ball on the words in time to the
music would be great, thanx in advance.
