A friend of mine just got his 401 and it is an amazing product. He bought it through Sam Ash who didn't have the interface card for his Sperry-pc yet but he bought the 401 itself. The documentation is a bit heavy, as discussed in some recent postings, but I wouldn't have it any other way. The wealth of information it has is astounding, and anyone who takes the time to plod through it (start with the glossary!) can become quite a MIDI wizard. It can be memory or I/O mapped, and you can put it in 'UART' mode to use it as a generic MIDI interface. Anyone out there had any luck writing code for it yet? A more in depth review will follow when the interface card arrives. I was just a broken head. I saw a world that others plundered. Now I stumble through the garbage. Slide and tumble. Slide and stumble. -B. Eno -- Synthetically, Shane A. Bouslough {floyd, hjuxa}!ganash!shane Periphonics Corp., 4000 Veterans Memorial Highway, Bohemia, NY 11716 (516) 467-0500
