In answer to Marc's original question, you can play MIDI out with the Music 
2000, so I don't see why you can't connect that up to some other machine with 
a MIDI in & sequencer and save it to a MIDI file that way.  However, I'm not 
so sure you'll be in luck if you were writing music on a M500 rather than the 
M5000.  Sibelius, on the 32-bit Acorn machines, will convert a MIDI file into 
a musical score if that's what you want (to varying degrees of success). 
 
In answer to Andrew's question; I have, sitting in my bedroom, a complete 
`AMPLE' system.  Offers, anyone?  The individual bits are: 
 
   Music 5000: Synthesiser 
   Music 4000: 4 octave keyboard 
   Music 3000: Expander synthesiser (basically, another M5000) 
   Music 2000: MIDI in & out, although the original supplied sw only supports 
               MIDI out. 
   Music 1000: Amplifier - which is currently attached to my RiscPC. 
 
I think there's a problem in splitting it up as I don't think that the 
software will run against any other serial number of AMPLE Rom, so it's all or 
nothing, isn't it? 
 
Cheers, 
James Sargent
