I'm in the process of putting together a MIDI system, and since I don't have
a computer at home yet, am pondering buying an Atari ST and some sequencing
or composing/sequencing software with it instead of buying a dedicated
MIDI sequencer.  So, I would like to know what you folks on the Net is:

    1. What music-related software to you have?
    2. What are the relevant features that sold you on it?
    3. What computer do you have (520ST or 1040ST, presumably, though if
	a stray Amiga or PC owner reads this, I haven't absolutely
	decided to go with Atari)?  Does the package require the 1040ST
	to be useful or to run at all?  Does the package require color
	or would monochrome be OK?
    4. Do you have any additional mass storage devices (e.g. 20 MB hard
	disk) and how useful are they for you.

PLEASE MAIL YOUR RESPONSES TO ME and I will summarize for the net in a
couple of weeks.  Thanks very much in advance...
