RE: [BBC-Micro] Anyone remember a music system?
I've got a copy of the Island Logic music system on disc, but I was
never able to break the protection on it.

Regards,
Julian.

  Was it the Island Logic music system? I remember this had some pretty
hefty tape protection including an apparently faulty loader (the tape
message still read "Searching" even though it was actually loading). It
was good, though, as most tape software was that you couldn't get onto
disc. I haven't seen it anywhere on the web archives though unless
someone knows different.

  If you want a music sequencer/composition program then see mine on the
8BS website (TBI-147).

  Morning all, 

  Many, many years ago, when the universe was young, men were real men,
small 
  furry things from alpha century ... etc ... and I was about 7, a
friend lent 
  me a music composition program for the Beeb. All I can remember about
it was 
  that it had some very impressive (for a 7-year-old, anyway) demo files
which 
  came with it. One was called RONDO (which was the Turkish March by
Mozart), 
  and was in about 5 separate files. There was an actual composition
bit, then 
  a kind-of playlist bit, etc. I only had it for a week, as my friend
wanted 
  it back and I didn't know how to beat copy protection at the time.
Does 
  anyone reckon they know what this software was called? And is it
available 
  on any of the usual archives? 

  Cheers, 

  Kris.
