      Well, that may be hard, until New England Digital is bought.  The latest
news is that Fostex, and one other unnamed manufacturer have withdrawn their
offers.  Synclavier Owner's Coalition has taken over service in NY, LA,
Chicago, and soon to be Nashville for $200 for the first unit, and $100 each
additional unit (annual).  The Owner's Coalition is speaking with the bank to
be involved in the decision of eventual buyer, but apparently is not actively
bidding for ownership.  Also, NED did not default, as was previously reported -
they were forclosed upon 15 days before the note was due.  This info comes from
the latest issue of MIX, so much may have happened since the printing date.

      P.S. Yes, I know you meant the suggestion as a joke.

	This question is for a friend without Net access.  Please e-mail all
replies to me.

	My friend is having trouble with his Ensoniq EPS-16+ sampler when he
uses its sequencer to record and control other MIDI instruments.  The
problem is sustain pedal on/off messages.

	His other synth (Roland D-50) has the sustain pedal.  He turns on
the EPS sequencer and records the Roland, using the pedal for sustain on and
off during his playing.  Now, he does an overdub with the Roland into the
same EPS track, again using the sustain pedal.  (He really needs to record
the part using overdubs, since it is highly complex.)

	Surprise!  His old and new sustain pedal messages interact, since the
overdubbed "pedal off" messages cut off the original "pedal on" messages.
Ouch!!

	My questions are:

(1)	Is there a convenient way to erase all sustain pedal messages
	in an EPS sequencer track?

(2)	Does anybody have a suggestion that will allow my friend's method
	to work?  He is NOT comfortable with computers and sequencing yet,
	so the simpler the better.  (100% musician, 0% scientist. :-))

(3)	My idea is that he should record all parts without the sustain
	pedal, and then overdub the pedal afterwards by itself.  But
	he is worried that he might record all his hours of music and
	then not be able to add the sustain -- that would be a disaster.
	Would my idea work?

Unfortunately, I am 300 miles away from my friend and cannot read his
manual and help him directly.  Any help is appreciated!!

Greetings to you all in Netland
I'd be curious to hear from other people and their experiences with
prices of synthesizers through mail order places. I'll be doing some
purchases in the near future and I'll be looking for the best prices I
can find. So far, I'm aware of two places:

1. Musician's Friend 800-776-5173
These guys are indeed friendly. They have a catalog with a rather large
selection of keyboardists, guitar and bass players. Decent prices.

2. 800-BUY-BEST
This number was given to me by the folks at the Boston Computer Society
Music Group. When I called, the guy I spoke with told me that once you
get the best price you can (by shopping around) you quote that price to
them and 90% of the time they'll beat it. Plus they ship COD.

If you've had any experience with either one of these places or any
others, perhaps it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a list (I know there is
an address/phone# list somewhere of manufacturers, but I don't think this
list gives any more details as to the kind of service offered by these
stores.

Again, any input will be welcome.

TOBIAS@bonnie.physik.uni-stuttgart.de wants to know how to calculate
checksums for Roland SC-55 SysEx messages.

This checksum should be a byte with the highest bit set to zero, such that if
you add all the bytes in the address and the data (in a "Data set message")
or the size (in a "Request data") message together with this checksum, then
the least significant 7 bits are zero.

In other words, you add all the bytes in the address and data (or size)
together, take the negative of the result, and then set the most significant
bit to 0.

Actually, this is mentioned in the manual on page 73, but it also took me a
while to find it. (Now I regularly compute these checksums by hand, since
PolyFrame apparently has a bug and does not want to do it for me.)

I remember my Wavestation (EX) overwriting RAM1 and RAM2 with the

I haven't tried to reproduce this, since I've heard it can wedge the

As I former Multitrack owner, I'll make a couple of small comments.  First,
if you're looking for some analog, the Split-Eight should get you started,
and $200 is pretty reasonable-sounding.  It is a very warm-sounding machine
(I am assuming the Split-Eight sounds pretty much like the Multitrack.)
It'll do nice portamento (unlike my $*#(^&@! Matrix-6).  What you won't
get is a dual-oscillator machine; you get one oscillator per voice, take it
or leave it.  That's a rather unfortunate limitation if you're looking to do
a lot of really fat stuff.  The Split-Eight is 8 *oscillators*, and there's no
sub-oscillator or anything like that.  You also don't get a zillion knobs;
the Sequential machines of that era used a single data knob and a
parameter-selection scheme.

So, it's a mixed bag.  I can't say I'd mind having one (I need something
for portamento, dammit!), but you have to know what you want...

I haven't seen much discussion of hardware sequencers in this category
and was wondering why not?  Also, I have not seen any ads or reviews of
hw sequencers for quite a while.  I am considering buying a Kawai Q-80
and a sound canvas for lugging around with my keyboard but was wondering
what other folks are using.  I have looked into notebook pc's but
they're pretty pricey in comparison to a dedicated hw sequencer.

Do you use a sw sequencer and lug your computer with you?
Do you use a hw sequencer built into a keyboard?
Is there a problem moving sequences between sw and hw sequencers?
Should I consider something other than a hw sequencer & sound canvas combo?
Which hw sequencer would you recommend?
Do you have a hw sequencer for sale (preferably the kawai)?

I know that's a lot of questions but I guess I need a lot of help! :-)
The local music stores here in Colorado Springs are pretty limited when
it comes to offering informed options and advice.

FWIW, I just got a 386.  For software, I'm using Music Prose 2.0 (for Windows,
lists for $249 and is the little brother to Finale).  For MIDI hookup, I'm 
going for a PAS-16 and MIDI-mate.  Gives me a sound card as well as MIDI and 
should work with Windows 3.1.  I'm using an external sequencer (MC50) for most
of my work and Roland's software for porting MIDI files.  You might want to
consider a software sequencer to do this job.  If I were doing this, I'd
probably go for a copy of Trax.

I picked one up years ago, and it has a few ok sounds - nothing
spectacular, but it occasionally sounds like a real Moog.  Or, at
least, it did - it's been gathering dust for about 5 years due to a
fault somewhere.  Two local shops say they can't repair it, so a
friend of mine is going to have a look, and this correspondence
prompted me to ask if anyone has an idea where I might get a circuit
diagram.  Unlikely, I know, but it would be very useful.

On another tack, I'm using Cubeat for sequencing, mainly because I
couldn't (and still can't) afford Cubase.  I could do with some
minimal ability to write scores, though - is there a simple
cheap/public domain program somewhere that would do the job?  It
really doesn't have to be very complicated, just enough to get brass
parts down in a basic fashion.

I recently obtained the Sound Qest editor for the wavestation from another
netuser. I works pretty well. The editor works with specific drivers for
each synth, so may be useful as an ed/lib for the entire system if drivers
exist for every unit in your rig.  I appears to control all parameters of
a plain vanilla wavestation but is limited in its control of A/D features.

I haven't used the program enough to give a full review, but so far it
hasn't frustrated me enough to throw anything at the cat while operating

P.S. Above, that should be "it" works pretty well. Actually, I works pretty

A few years ago, when I was going to Berklee College of Music, I used to
have this really cool book about jazz chords and voicings. I think it was
called something like "The Complete Book of Chords for Jazz Piano" or
something like that. It was primarily II-V progression exercises using
different voicings. The book also had in the inside front cover, a sleeve
with one of those plastic demo records with examples from the book.

I have since then lost my copy of this book, which now seems to be out of
print. If you've heard of this book (or better yet, if you have it) could
you please let me buy it from you, or get the publisher info, or

I recently purchased a Kawai K1-II without the manual (used keyboard).
Apparently, the system board was recently replaced, and so all it has for
patches (in all internal banks) is what sounds like a square wave.  96
square waves are not very exciting.

So, I have some patch maps on my PC, right?  Hook up the K1 to the
PC, crank up the K1 editor/librarian that I have, download the patches
to the synth, and poof, suddenly I have lots of way-cool sounds to play
with.

The problem is, they dissappear when the power is removed.  I've writen
the sounds (at least, I think I have), and the internal memory is not
protected (else I wouldn't be able to download the sounds).

Can someone tell me, simply, in a mail message, preferrably, how to
save the entire internal bank of sounds?  Failing that, can someone
tell me if hitting the WRITE button, followed by two YES's is really
how I'm supposed to save sounds?  Again, I say that I don't have a manual,
and this is really driving me crazy.

Whether they fit in your car or not, depends on just how much synth you 
can afford.  :)

Subject: Info on Cubase for Windows
Date: 1 Sep 92 21:03:16 GMT

I spoke to someone at Steinberg Jones today, and she said that:
	1) Cubase for Windows was released approximately 1 month ago.  List
US$299.
	2) There is no demo available.  There may be one in the future.

I called Leigh`s Computers who is currently sold out...but who supposedly will
have copies in soon.  Price, US$219.

I am disappointed that there is no demo available, anyone taken the plunge and
purchased it yet?  I am sure that many besides myself are wondering how it
compares to Cakewalk for Windows.  Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Will Weidman
