[comp.sys.tandy] Looking for MIDI interface/software for Tandy Model III?

jeff@drexel.UUCP (Jeff White) (12/06/88)

  An acquaintance of mine has a Tandy Model III computer (sorry, don't know
configuration).  He has some electronic keyboards and would like to interface
them to the III, using MIDI hardware and software.  I don't think he is
especially computer literate.  He just came to me and said that he's seen
midi interfaces for IBM's and Apple's, and wanted to know if there were
similar setups for his Model III.  I'm just forwarding his request to the net.
Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

I personally am involved with MIDI and as of this time, I don't know of any
MIDI interfaces for the Model III or for that fact, the software either. If
he is just interested a little, he could perhaps find a Commodore 64 and drive  at a garage sale real cheap and buy an interface for that. Passport Designs     makes good interfaces and software for the 64 and they don't set you back a lot.
Hope this helps.
