I have been considering purchasing a Roland D-5, which is an entry level
keyboard (the musical type).  I would like to use my AT as a sequencer for
the D-5 via a MIDI port.  What I was wondering is if any of you know whether
or not the D-5 and the MIDI port will also allow me to enjoy sound programmed
into software.  I know that the Roland MT-32 is a sound module available
and that there are many software programs that support it, but I was wondering
if the D-5 would work in its place?

Thanks in advance.
