Now, is it possible to use PR#1 (for an opcode MIDI interface in serial port 1) and then a CHR$(4):print "x" to output data? Seems like a really bad way. Since apples use direct memory addresses for I/O couldn't I just poke values into the proper location? I'd just like a simple way to play a few notes. Thanks...
