The cheapest apple compatible with a MIDI interface is the new Laser 128 ex+ Its about four times as fast as a IIc, has a 3.5 inch drive in the side, an und external drive connector on the back, a clock built in a one meg ram board (socketed but no ram chips), and a midi interface in the back. It comes with the normal Laser equipment...super serial printer card, super serial modem card, parallel printer card, mouse/joystick port, rgb port, 80 column card, etc. I'm pretty sure they have a 3.5er in the side. Its cheaper than the IIc+. I don't pretend to know squat about using MIDI though. +------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Michael J Pender Jr snail mail: Box 1942 c/o W.P.I. | | Bitnet: greyelf@wpi.bitnet 100 Institute Rd. | | Internet: greyelf@wpi.wpi.edu Worcester, Ma 01609 | | User #20 at H.U.G.E.

I have a friend who wants to hook up his MIDI keyboard to his Amiga (shudder I know, but please hear me out). What this person wants to do is make his own cable from dual 5-pin Din to DB25, rather than paying some outlandishly high price for such an animal. He has pinouts for the DB25 end of the cable, but lacks those for the MIDI end. Does anyone out there have access to/know what those pin-outs are? Any help would be greatly apreciated. Thank you. Until then, Aaron Swiers
