Yes I remember both of the above. The UMI setup was fairly good - well
it worked, kept good time (more than can be said of most modern PC based
systems) and there wasn't a lot of choice at the time)
I still have mine - all boxed, manuals etc. in good condition, and
always intend to dig it out and connect up to my collection of early
MIDI synths, but never seem to find time.. Same with the ST/Pro-24
setup. <sigh> All in the attic.
