I have never owned a synthesizer before, and I am currently looking at the Roland 'Alpha Juno-2' and the 'SynthPlus 60'. I would like to get some opinions on these, and maybe even some pointers in the right direction for a first synthesizer. Also, being an engineering/computer science type, I am particularly interested in the MIDI interface. Is there any available documentation on the MIDI interface and protocol?? Thanks , Brian. -- ----- Brian A.
