Since I've just joined...I'll give you a quick intro to my setup:

BBC Model B, 128K Sideways RAM, 2x80T FD, Music 500 + 5000 s/w, plus
Music 2000 (MIDI) driving a Roland D-110 module.

There was some discussion in Amplinex (Ample User Group) about using the
M2000 as I/P (instead of the usual O/P)...I never got the s/w quite working
(then again I don't have a MIDI keyboard handy). I don't know if Amplinex
progressed any further, since I haven't bothered sending over for any
discs for more than a year now.

Not a helluva lot these days. I'm hoping, when/if I get an Arc I'll be
able to better use the D-110. If anyone has any AMPLE s/w they'd be willing
to swap I'd like to hear from them, particularly Amplinex discs after
issue #16 (Mar '91)....thanks.
