I used to own Sync-Trak, but sold it due largely to my frustration with
the copy-protection.  As you know (being a SMPTE-Trak owner), their over-
sexed dongle requires both your serial and joystick ports, a serious
drawback for someone who like to use his computer for other things.  Aside
from that, I loved the package, and would recommend it to anyone who uses
their computer ONLY for MIDI.

I did find that the best way to get support was to call their BBS, at
213-826-4288 (Santa Monica, I believe).  Several of their authors are
on there regularly.
