Hi Makje!


I had a good deal. For installing a Windows PC, I will get a Cubase 3.5 VST 
(Win95(working now :-)
With DOS, Win3.11 or 95 it is very similar to an ATARI MIDI, but not as 
well.

For all instances I have it, bez I need this GM Stuff. The Soundcard in the 
PC is doing well with Cubase, making half a megabyte, some better, some 
terrible GM Sound. But it cannot harmonize with my synths. Too digital :-) 
(AWE32, Trash. But good for exotic MIDI files as you mentioned, and perfect 
importing with Cubase 3.xx)

My Synthmachines \ufffdget connected to the TT. Midex etc. etc,   dreaming......




Best Regards,

Daniel Mandic
