Someone told me that the "Axel F Theme" by Harold Faltermeyer
was produced completely on some sort of digital synthesizer. If
this is true then I assume that all of the digitally created
sounds are digitally stored and that this entire piece can be
replayed at any time and sound exactly the same as when it was first
created. Does this have any merit or just B.S.?

Seems logical to me. He also probably used a drum machine (let me make that definately). If all the gear is MIDI'd with a sequencer/computer then sure it can be played back in purity. In fact I've already heard it done. My question then is ... who'd want to? -- Mike !ihnp4!ihlpm!michael1
