Summary: MIDI Xref: mnetor comp.sys.cbm:931 comp.sys.atari.st:6361 rec.music.synth:1936 I am not a MIDI expert by any means, but I do know the ST pretty good. All I can do is pass on what I and alot of other ST owners have learned. The ST is a very good computer, the support for the MIDI port is very good, I know that there is several very good software packages out for it, and most of them do not but "copy protection" in your way if you decide to use a hard disk like myself. You must remember that if you do get the "Amiba" you will have to dish out the extra bucks for the MIDI interface(if they have one??). Give the ST a look over, as ol'Jack says "Power without the Price". Also it is a known fact that the ST is by far more supported than the Amiga. Give the Amiga a look over as well, it is a nice machine. later Barry P.S. Good luck with whatever machine you by!!
