o	Cakewalk Pro will address all 8 ports seperatly for a total of 128
   midi channels (16 channels x 8 ports).  I believe other sequencers like
   Voitra support these also.  Almost any MSDOS (IBM family) program written
   for the PC will work, as the machine is really an IBM clone setup for music.
   (kinda like the atari w/built in midi ports....)
