So, I plugged the SQ16 into the computer's MIDI IN, and the SidStation into
the computer's MIDI OUT.  I loaded up MIDIOX.  From what I understand,
MIDIOX just monitors what's on the MIDI line, and echos an exact copy back
out.  Guess what - the SidStation works fine!

So ... I figure that the SQ16 must be outputting a bad voltage or
something, which is causing the SidStation to reset.  Later this week, I'm
going back to the dealer where I bought the SQ16 to see if it was just one
bad model ... hopefully his others won't do the same.  I'm going to test it
out in the store.

In case it doesn't work out, does anyone know a nice 16 step sequencer that
isn't too expensive?
