I don't know of a ftp for midi, but if you need good specs along with software, check with Music Quest. They sell a programmers toolkit for the MQX series and other MPU 401 compatable I/F's that comes with the full MPU spec. and cotains 'C' callable subroutines that can do the low level I/O for you (ie: all the stuff needed to write own sequencer). Music Quest can be reached at (800) 876-1376. sp .Steve Pirk.......midit.....Voice: (714) 952-5516......................... ..McDonnell Douglas M&E..Internet: pirk@dev0.mdcbbs.com................... ...5701 Katella Ave..........UUCP: uunet!mdcbbs!dev0.mdcbbs!pirk.......... ....Cypress, CA. 90630........PSI: PSI%31060099980019::DEV0::PIRK......... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The opinions expressed herein, are probably not those of MDC, and I'm not sure if I can even call them mine......."
