I'm thinking about picking up a Soundblaster some time soon, but I was wondering if the MIDI ports on the card are compatible with the industry standard Roland card (the model number escapes me)? If not, what sequencers and such support it? Jason Merrill jmerrill@jarthur.claremont.edu

No they are not MPU-401 compatible and even worse they half duplex if I remember correctly (can't output and record simultaneously)... -- +-----All Views Expressed Are My Own And Are Not Necessarily Shared By------+ +------------------------------My Employer----------------------------------+ + Ronald S.
