I have yet to see a decent music editor that takes full advantage of the Amiga's sound capabilities. Sonix is horrible as far as real score editing is concerned, and DMCS, aside from its other flaws, never did a good job of supporting digitized instruments. I fail to see why some company hasn't grabbed this opportunity already.
