Lines: 28 Hello, yes, there is a DMCS upgrade to 2.5 available. I forget the exact cost, probably about $25. In addition to making the Voice Editor usable on the Mac II/IIx/IIcx, there are a few other enhancements that make it worth getting, such as more sophisticated text handling, the ability to define the space for a title at the top of the first page, better printing on an Imagewriter or compatible (DeskJet, whatever) through use of a double size font, and a slightly slicker MIDI implementation (although it's still not the cat's meow). I have quite a large wishlist for a additional features for DMCS which I'm going to shoot over to the folks at EA sometime soon. I'm a 'serious' :-) composer who uses DMCS _A LOT_ and find it to be an excellent tool that could be made a lot more useful with a few well thought out enhancements. In any case, bang for the buck, it simply can't be beat! Yes, you have to send them your DMCS 2.0 Instruments/Music disk to get the upgrade, along with your hard-earned $$ ( or whatever it is you earn). If anyone else out there has some ideas or would like to contribute to a wish-list for some additional DMCS functionality, post an additional response here or email bwolf@hpbbn. regards, Bryan
