Russell) Newsgroups: comp.sys.amiga.audio Subject: OctaMED v1.00 Message-ID: <1991May8.114553.11602@vaxa.strath.ac.uk> Date: 8 May 91 11:45:53 GMT Organization: Strathclyde University VAX Cluster Lines: 20 I just got OctaMED yesterday; a commercial 8 channel MED with all the features of MED v3.0, and less of the bugs (there's a 4-channel MED v3.10 out as well, methinks, but it's not included). The 8-channel stuff sounds a little ropey (well, the one demo does) but it's neat. It runs in Med-res mode, and manages to multitask whilst playing 8-channels on a 2 bitplane screen (on a stock A500). I'm not sure whether it can load Oktalyzer files, but the 8-channel MEDplayer is freely distributable. I reckon it's #10 Sterling well spent (#15 outside the UK). Amiganuts United are doing the distribution; typical of me, I can't remember their address. -- |Stewart C.
