mono converter, but I'd like to get stereo sound and higher sampling

It can be, if you have other hardware that uses the same IRQ and/or address.

Mm-hmm...  I seem to recall people saying the same thing about hard  
drives.  "I could care less about having a hard drive, as long as I can  
run my sequencer fine.  300K floppies do just great for me."

Or graphical interfaces.  "I could care less about pressing little buttons  
on-screen with a mouse, as long as I can do what I need to.  Text-based  
screens are just fine for me."

With all due respect, Atari's claims of wonderfulness nonetheless, 640x480  
is an embarassment.  I was hoping the Falcoln would offer something new  
graphics-wise, much less technologically up-to-date.  Isn't that what  
Atari was promising?

I should have known better.

The PowerBook 100 is fine. Apple don't seem to know what they're talking

   The PB 140's and 170's didn't have MIDI either until
   a recent software driver update.

Which you'll notice didn't come from Apple (and actually isn't publically
available yet, though I have a beta of it).

   Such an update, according to the Apple
   engineer I spoke to, is not possible for the PB 100 due to hardware
   limitations.

The PollProc serial blackout fix won't work for the PowerBook 100
because the ROM code only polls the modem port (which the PB100
doesn't have). However, the PB100 doesn't have serious backout
problems in the first place.

And, MODEDIT 3 *is* going to be released, soon; it's totally different than
every other MOD editor that I know of.  Sorry for the delay,
folks, but I am a student, and schooling takes a lot of time.... currently
I'm finishing up the "frills" to MODEDIT 3 (configuration file, etc); the

Yes, but Win 3.1 knows all about the MT-32 / LAPC-1 and the MIDI-mapper will
map the General Midi patches onto those in the MT-32.  It seems to do a
pretty good job, finding reasonable substitutes as needed.  That is what the
midi-mappers job is!  I have played the Sound Canvas demos and other General
Midi songs through the LAPC and it sounds good.  Main problem is that General
Midi calls for 16 channels, and the LAPC / MT-32 only has 9.

I want to be able to turn a variable resistance into a 0-127 MIDI continuous 
controller value.  Ideally, I could have four or eight of these converters in 
a box, each with it's own dip switch to map which of the 64 controllers is 
being sent.  Spring terminals allow resistance input in the form of 
potentiometers, photo-resistors, poly graph...whatever.

I realize that A/D conversion is probably required along with some sort of 
opto-isolator for MIDI conversion.  I cannot be the only one who has wanted 
a device like this.  Has anyone done something similar or could give me some 
direction?  Help!

      First off; what is the MT-32?

Multitimbral box from Roland, combination of sample player with some

   I've seen a lot about that.  I was
   wondering if there are boxes available which are capable of producing sounds
   (instruments) via MIDI -- kind of like keyboards without the keyboard.

Many; the MT-32 is one.

  I'm
   happy with the CT-670's keyboard, for now anyway, but it's limited in terms
   of MIDI.  So, is there a way I can play on it, to the Mac, and then have the

Yup, and it's quite common.

      Or, out of curiosity, for those of you with Macs, what kind of setup do
   you have for making music?

Uuuurrr... Mac SE/30, PowerBook 100, PowerBook 140, MIDI Time Piece,
Roland D-110, D-550, U-50, MKS-70, Korg Wavestation, Waldorf
MicroWave, Studiomaster mixer, various MIDI and effects processors,
and a couple of DAT decks. On the Mac: Opcode OMS, Opcode MAX, MIDI
Manager, MOTU Performer and some home-grown MIDI software.

      I'd be willing to invest more in my setup, up to maybe $800-$1000, but
   I'm not talented enough yet to see spending more than that..

Talent and budget are unrelated; don't spend money unless you feel
limited by what you have.

Is there a book/chart/formula that tells me what to change these 16 catagories
to in order to play other .MID files?  How does one know what to change these

I have read some of the stuff in "sol.cs.ruu.nl" about basic MIDI, but it still

Hello..

With 24 bit 640x480 is more than enough and you cant use more than that on a
video recorder. Perfect machine for animations and audio. (On a monitor with
a price tag under 1000$ you will MUCH MORE appreciate 24 bit than 1024 res).
And please stop the flames. We want to hear about the audio possibilities, not
the video ones.

Question: can a 386/486 running some variety of Unix handle
(under DOSMerge or similar software) DOS programs using MIDI?

Other question (applying also to native Unix MIDI programs): 
is the IRQ assignment problem that plagues many DOS systems
with MIDI boards still there with Unix?
 
I looked at the FAQs and I only found this:

So VP/ix seems OK.  I would like to hear about other systems.
Any positive or negative experience?

However, Atari just has 2 channels. How can it play 4 tracks mod?
