Date: 16 Oct 92 08:41:21 GMT
Organization: U of Cambridge, England

I have just bought Cakewalk 4.0E for DOS to use with my Yamaha SY35.
Is there anyone on the net who is also using both of these?  I would
like to do system exclusive dumps from the SY35 to Cakewalk but the
Cakewalk file CAKEWALK.SXT doesn't include paramaters for the SY35.

FYI, my copy of CAKEWALK.SXT (the Cakewalk system exclusive dump request
macro file) is dated 13 June 1991 and includes the necessary information
for the Yamaha SY22 - not much use to me.

The reference manual I got with the SY35 does contain some information
about doing sysex dumps but it does not seem all that clear to me.  If
there is someone who knows what to include or has solved this problem
before I'd be very grateful for any information you have.

Dan Kalin and others posted a few months ago about using 9 chip SIMMs

Is there anything one must do to get 9's to work in the place of

Wendy Carlos became a historic figure BECAUSE she took herself seriously
enough to push a cranky electronic device and a home-built 8 track
studio to their expressive limits.  And she has consistantly grown
as an artist and perfected her craft.  It amazes me that after hearing
all the complaints about "unsophisticated synth users" that you
now complain about someone whose use of an electronic studio is probably
the most sophisticated in the world!  The woman regularly uses alternate
tunings on her compositions.  How many of us have taken a serious stab
at the Proteus's tuning table?

Maybe Wendy does take herself seriously, but so does Keyboard, who
regularly featured her in interviews and as a columnist.  Her record
company has decided that she's serious enough about her craft to
put out a CD on how she does it! (Wendy Carlos: Secrets of Synthesis,
CBS label, catalog number MK4233)

John, you may very well make some interesting music, but coming down
on like Carlos with a disgusting comment on what was probably a very
emotionally difficult decision, sounds like "sour grapes" to me.

for around $600. It is in top condition, and is sexier than most

This thing produces the richest, sweetest sounds ever. You can

"around $600" means any offer is accepted.

I too have just purchased a K2000R.  What a wonderful box!  (I take back
any of my earlier K2000 bashing.)  The unit integrates extremely well with 
the Kurzweil Midboard too, glad to see that with the change in owners, the
Kurzweil combatibility was still maintained.  The manual is also quite 
detailed and easy to follow (given the inherent complexity of this box). 

Nothing to report yet except I thought that the new OS was able to read 
Emulator samples?  Don't see it mentioned anywhere.  Also, there is a 
program memory upgrade (as opposed to sample memory) from 120K to 760K.  Has 
anyone done this themselves?

Date: Wed, 14 Oct 1992 09:03:30 GMT


	I see a lot of questions about getting patches for this machine...I
once had the same problem, as I shared before, when the service tech
eliminated them and refused to take responsibility.  I had to wait till a
new Korg rep came to our area, and transfer the factory patches from one
of their machines.  For a minimal charge, I am always glad to ship the factory
patches.  (Charge depending on what it takes to get it to you....for
example, if you send self addressed envelope/RAM card, the price is $0.00,
while SPG on floppy with me mailing it goes for $8.00)  I also have a
couple of other banks to offer.
	As to the puzzle....the WS does have release envelope capability. 
For example, set the filter to a cutoff of "0", and modulate it with ENV1.
Set ENV1 to all zero's until segment 4, where it should be set to "99". 
Now, just set the amp envelope to have the desired release decay.  This
will cause a "sound" to trigger, if a sustaining waveform resides in the
partial we are editing.  If, however, by "sound", you mean "trigger a
SAMPLE", this will not cut it.  To do this, the only options I am aware of:

	1) Set up a wavesequence which uses "gat" as the duration of the 
	sample you want to trigger on note off.  This may be used in combo
	with the above idea to get pretty much anything I suppose.

	2) Use a program which allows for user defined MIDI responses. In 
	this case, we would program to have the computer respond with a
        note on for a particular MIDI channel, every time it rec'd a note off
	on the reference channel, and program a MULTISET to allocate the 
	appropriate sounds to those channels.  Having such a program, you
	could also send out controller messages, were it sophistocated 
	enough, which could step you around in a wavesequence.  Does such
	a program exist?  One of the things I couldn't believe about SPG
	is that you can't even send out sysex messages while you are playing
	a sequence!  Thus, I am forced to keep the MMT-8 around.  I would
	sure be cool if they would upgrade to handle that, and perhaps the
	scheme outlined above while they are at it!  -Bob Weigel

You folks are seriously overreacting to this.  Aside from the fact that
the law recognizes the difference between intentional (or even
sub-conscious) copying and coincidental similarities; the worst that 
would normally happen is that you will be ordered to stop distributing 
the infringing work.  Period.  If you made tons of money off of a song 
you claim to have written and it sounds too much like something else
to be a mere coincedence then you will probably have to pay a major fine
as well.  That would normally involve establishing a reasonable belief
that you had in fact been exposed to the original song prior to
writing your song and that the similarities are *substantial*.

It's healthy for a composer to be vigilant about inadvertant copying
of another's work.  I'm not talking about being influenced, I'm talking
about blatant rip-off.

This has nothing to do with copyright.  BMI and ASCAP collect money
for writers and publishers who have signed a blanket license agreement
to allow them to do so.  

As far as copyright goes, if you are concerned that your work sounds
like someone else's then I suggest you change it.  Not only for your
concerns of copyright but to define your own style and self.  If you
have any dreams about some master computer someplace that you can
enter all works of art into to see if it is close enough to something
else existing then you will never create anything.  If you are comissioned
to create a "knock-off" of a popular work it would be wise to take
a totally different approach.  Other than that, you create the best
work you can and you take your chances.  No sense going through life
being afraid that someone might claim infringement.  Besides, if on
the road to becoming famous you are not greeted with a few law suits
along the way , you simply are not trying hard enough! :-)

I'm in the 'market' for a Roland FP-8 ACAP (As cheap as possible) new or

Does anyone know of a great cheap place to get one from?  I've tried
music stores around here, and the cheapest I can get is $2295.  Is this
good?  Is there a better source?

Used is good, too, if anyone has one or knows of a used source...

Thanks a zillion for any replies!!!

O.K. However, neither article commented on availability and specifically
what role Fostex would play in licensing from Alesis.  I heard through
my tech type friends that Alesis has at least an eight month backlog yet the
music store down the street has advertized that they have them in stock.
Will Fostex help Alesis make the Adat S-VHS format a standard in the pro
market or mearly elevate the whole context of recording making room for
Optical Disc based technology with true 20-bit A/D and D/A conversion
etc.  Will there always be a way for professional studios to emphasize
quality through better equipment or have we begun to see a truely
competitive environment where workmanship, quality and experience
take precident over who has the neatest most expensive toy?

Measuring quality over quantity?  Wow, what a concept.  But then again
what it "quality" now anyway.  (Whoops, excuse the "Lila" reference.)

The main guy behind Trans-X was a Canadian called Pascal Languirand.
I have one of his albums called _Minos_ which is an ambient album a la
Eno. I don't what he is doing lately though. I'd also be interested
in knowing about other stuff Pascal Languirand was involved with.

I should mention that Quebec, the Canadian province that is predominantly
french, has a very thriving music scene, especially dance music.
Unfortunately few of the performers get attention until they start
singing in English - such as Celine Deion (who did Disney's Beauty &
the Beast).
