The problem is more likely to be related to the ID of your 
AMPLE ROM. All Hybrid Music system software was supplied 
for use with a particular ID only, so the only way to get 
it to work is either to hack the software, or get a version 
specifically for your AMPLE ROM. I'm aiming to get a Music 
3000 Expander working at some point (also bought from 
Holland!). Chris Jordan of Hybrid informed me earlier in 
the year that they were planning to put all their AMPLE 
software on the BBC Lives web site with circumventions for 
the ID and password protection. They haven't done this as 
yet, but I live in hope!
