I just bought an A1000 -- so far I love it. I need a MIDI interface and found an old schematic for one that someone designed -- 1 IN, 2 OUTS, 1 THRU. It consisted only of a few hex-inverters, an opto-isolator and some resistors. I realize that because of the Amiga's UART not a whole lot more is required, but can this possibly be all that needed? Or, should I buy one somewhere?

The latest Amiga Transactor (September, I believe), has MIDI interface specs for ALL Amigas. It also has specs for building a box that will split the signals comming into the box into 5 (or so) signals comming out. -- "What is another word | Dave Lowrey | [The opinions expressed MAY be for 'Thesaurus'?" | Amdahl Corp. | those of the author and are not | Houston, Texas | necessarily those of his Steven Wright | amdahl!dwl10 | employer] (`nuff said!)

There is a MIDI schematic in the most recent Commodore magazine (I think that is the Magazine's title). It has a MIDI in out and thru. All parts are available from Radio Shack. Does anyone know if this design is any good? Bill Murphy
