[comp.sys.cbm] Seeking Midi advice

ecp@mbunix.mitre.org (Pivnik) (12/22/89)

I am new to keyboards and MIDI and am thinking about purchasing a
computer to do sequencing, patch editing, filing etc.  I was wondering
if  those who use a C64 or C128 could tell me about their setups.
Information I am interested in are whose MIDI interface are you using,
what software do you recommend, and what would be reasonable costs to
pay to set up such a system?  Any products/pitfalls to avoid?  

I have also been considering using the atari 1040ST and since I posted
a similar request to the atari newsgroup, I wanted to hear from
commodore owners as well.  I would most likely dedicate the computer to
the studio setup, so non-musical features like which is better for
word-processing, etc, would not be a deciding factor.

Thanks-in-advance,

P.S. Send responses to me and if there is general interest, I'll summarize
and repost.
