Thanks for addres information. My memory of Maplin Electronics is the
nifty synthesizer they did with the magzine ETI. They were very big on
kits etc. Is there any kit that features the chip? (I am interested in
using a clavinova drive-unit (ie the same disk-drive that Yamaha use to

Organization: School of Physics, University of Sydney, Australia
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 1992 10:37:45 GMT

Yes, I know that the JW50 is yet another Roland workstation and isn't much
different to all that ahs gone before. However, I'd like to know the following:

1) Does the sequencer compare well with that of, say, the W30?

2) Does it have the ability to layer sounds in a patch (like, say, the JV80
and D70, where you can layer "tones" with individual filter/ amp
characteristics) or is it like the MV30 (one sound per patch)?

3) Is it reasonable to use performance wise? Specifically, does it have anything
like the "performance map" in the D70? Is it easy to change between sounds?

The context of use is this: a fellow band keyboardist wants to get a good, 
straightforward workstation kind of thing. He wants a good sequencer and good
performance control (changing sounds, editing filter parms on the fly etc). 
Again, we know the sounds will be OK if unremarkable. He can always plug
into my Wavestation, non? :-)

Try some of the 'junior' sequencers offered by many manufacturers.
I have heard good things about MasterTracks junior from Passport.
Also, many have upgrade programs so that when you do need more power,
you can 'trade in' the junior sequencer and get credit towards the
full blown version.

So, let me get this straight - everyone who needs 1k+ resolution
always buys a SPARC, and everyone else is a hobbyist who only needs
640x480?  Right.  Can I have some of what you're smoking?

Incidentally, our vendor charges $995 for an upgrade from a 14"->21"
monitor (Idek/Iyama).  I'd hardly call that big bucks for many people,
especially anyone who has the money to even think about buying a
reasonably configured SPARC.

Actually, the Falcon is compatible with the ST line.  Although the ST line
doesn't have a great source of general productivity titles, you will have
access to alot of MIDI stuff (not to mention games and a very good hobbiest
following)  All-n-all the machine has some merits.  I'll warrant that Atari
sells quite a few.  Especially to the music folks.

I got the following message from a friend in Germany.  I don't know

can help:

I sent away for a multi-media upgrade for our PC.  It comes with a
CD-ROM reader and a sound card.  Due to a long series of annoying events,
we're not getting the one we originally ordered.  The system we will
get includes the Turtle Beach sound card, the best one on the market.
However, the driver it comes with for Windows and Cakewalk is not the
latest one.  Twelve Tone Systems, the producer of Cakewalk (my sequencer)
says the latest driver is available on Compuserve.  I don't know if it
would be in the MIDI forum, or if Twelve Tone Systems has its own area
(like Borland).  If you know anyone on Compuserve, possibly you could
prevail on them to download a copy of the driver.  It should be a small file
(about 40K).  Also, if your contacts are invloved in MIDI, any files
(eg., songs, utilities) they might have would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Master Tracks Pro is less expensive, and (I've heard from those familar with
all three) more straightforward with the things you typically have to do the
most frequently.  Doesn't have as many esoteric features, but very clean and
easy to use for bread and butter things.

Music Prose 2.0 is the latest and runs under Windows 3.1.  From what I
understand, it is much improved over previous versions.  It also supports
Soundblaster.  Supposedly, a version of Finale for Windows 3.1 is in the 
wings and will include some of the features of MP 2.0.  Also, 4 MB of RAM is
recommended for MP 2.0.  I'm running on a 386 with 5 MB, but can't compare 
this with previous systems since this is my first IBM system.  Previously, I
borrowed a Mac to run DMCS.  By day, I run on VMS and Ultrix systems.  Slow
is SUCH a relative thing ...

     I've seen a message in music.progressive that states the existence of

     message, the location of the mailing list is:

     I've Emailed both gabriel-request#casbah and germuska@casbah, and I
     haven't seen any replies or any evidence of this mailing list.

     Does the list indeed exist?  If not, is there a true Gabriel
     mailing list in the works out there in Usenet?

     Gabriel regularly works and experiments with synethsizers, and he
     was one of the first rock singers to use and master the Fairlight,
     so I believe this message is appropriate for this conference.

Yes, I thought it was lousy.  It sounds like they stuffed wads of

NOT TRUE! has vector control which mixes the volume and/or pitch between 
2/4 sound sources


Considering just the FM part of a TG33 - not very good. It is a simple 2
operator. (the TX81Z is 4 op with 8 different wave shapes).

This is not to say that the TG33 is junk - it has a very good sound, but
not FM.
