[comp.music] Experience with MIDI and Noise/Star/ProTracker Amiga, anyone?

bims@diku.dk (Asger H|gsted) (02/21/91)

 Since I'm not very rich (to say the least), I'd like to know what
possibilities there's in using Pro/Noisetracker or Startrekker with a MIDI
keboard + interface on my A500. I.e. is it possible to record normal Amigas
tunes, playing the samples on the keyboard? Etc...

 Any replies greatly appreciated

Using those programs as a sequencer is not very wise. I think the midisupport
was only added to make arranging/editing easier. Although you can make some 
songs with them (only 4 voice polyphony), I've made some. But to really use 
Midi to make music you'll need a real sequencer (for example Music-X)...
