#30953- #KCS2-V.3.01 (cont.) Message #31202
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Audio/MIDI March 25, 1990 5:18 PM
Well, ok – I was just going by that message you left which did leave the impression that you felt Level II lacked in capabilities – I wasn't following the entire stream – apologies if I misunderstood. I have played with the MTPro demo, btw, but it failed to impress…
#30643 KCS2-V.3.01 (cont.) Message #30837
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Audio/MIDI March 19, 1990 11:04 PM
Just throwing my two cents in here… > how do you know that Level II is the most powerful? Well, I *have used all existing Amiga sequencers(except for Master Tracks) and I own both Level II and B&P, and believe me, Level II *is* the most powerful MIDI tool now…
Mandela Software Message #23440
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · DeskTop Video October 18, 1989 11:25 PM
A while back I noticed a message here from someone looking for a copy of Mandela software for the Amiga. While at a computer show up here in Toronto recently (where Mandela was written), I noticed a copy at the Computer Variables desk for a couple of hundred. Their store…
#23293 BaudBandit Message #23321
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · General Help October 15, 1989 7:45 PM
Me again. Here's the script pairs that I use for Compuserve and they work fine. Note that I need to go through a dataline service which accounts for the 'CIS' entry at the beginning. {2400=\w^C\r\w\w\w\w\r} {Name:=CIS\r\ac-} {ID:=#####,####\r} {PASSWORD: xxxxxxx xxxxx\r} Just substitute your account number for the ###'s and your…
#23318 BaudBandit Message #23320
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Applications October 15, 1989 7:35 PM
Arrgh! And after all my babbling about ARexx! I haven't done any ARexx stuff with it yet, but will look into it. I'd say that a functioning ARexx dial command is a fairly vital option… J.C.
#23313 BaudBandit Message #23319
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Applications October 15, 1989 7:33 PM
Sorry, Tom – there doesn't appear to be an 'ABOUT' menu selection anywhere so I can't ascertain the version number of my Baud Bandit. I assume it's been around for a while from reading between the lines of your message – this is certainly the first commercial release in Canada…
Baud Bandit Message #23289
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Applications October 14, 1989 10:35 PM
I just picked up a new copy of Baud Bandit, released by Progressive Peripherals, and thought I'd share my first thoughts. I'm not sure where this program 'came' from – I've heard of it before and thought perhaps it's been in the Shareware market for a bit and has made…
#22960 WordPerfect Update Message #23114
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · WP/DT Publishing October 9, 1989 11:43 PM
Thanks for the info, Lynn. J.C.
#23050 Dr.T's Level 2 & DTP Message #23112
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Audio/MIDI October 9, 1989 11:39 PM
Thanks for the inside info, Phil! I agree with your comments on Level II, which I use on occasion as I learn it. It certainly does have capabilities beyond anything else available, despite the interface. It's great about the upcoming menus – even the Mac version is lacking those. I've…
#22905 WordPerfect Update Message #22919
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · WP/DT Publishing October 3, 1989 10:34 PM
Hi Lynn. The last upgrade I got of WP, the person who took my order over the phone specifically told me not to wipe the old PRINT disk, as there were some problems with the new ones. Is this no longer a problem with the new release? Also, I'm using…
#22684- M & Texture Message #22753
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Audio/MIDI September 28, 1989 10:00 PM
Hmm – ok here's answers back at ya… a) M is truly an excellent program – too bad you got some bad press somewhere. When I first fiddled with a save-disabled demo of it, I just hated it because I couldn't figure out how to USE it! After purchasing it…
#22712- #Mirage/MIDI Message #22751
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Audio/MIDI September 28, 1989 9:46 PM
True, how true. As long as you hit middle C and it sounds like a great thundering herd of rhino have just trampled several members of the London Symphony Orchestra in what sounds like the Sydney Opera House, then you've got an acceptable product. J.C.
#22388- Mirage/MIDI Message #22418
From: John Coldrick Amiga Arts Forum · Audio/MIDI September 18, 1989 10:10 PM
Hi Mark, just jumping in here. Sound Oasis that Rick mentioned to you will allow downloading of samples from the Mirage to Amiga IFF, but not the other way. Because of various hardware components in the Mirage, you still can't get EXACTLY the the range of sounds from a sample…
#23072 Amiga/IRIS Message #23618
From: John Coldrick AmigaTech · Forum Business/Help November 27, 1988 9:18 PM
Hi, John. I'm familiar with your company(you put out Interchange, don't you?), and I'll give you a buzz in the near future. We're about to start work on a video piece for a modelled building that's about the size and detail of St. Paul's Cathedral, so things have suddenly got…
Amiga/IRIS Message #23050
From: John Coldrick AmigaTech · Forum Business/Help November 22, 1988 11:00 PM
Hi there all. This message is a bit of a shot in the dark, I'll admit! I own an Amiga 2000 and work for a small computer graphics firm in Toronto, Canada. At work we're using IRIS 4D workstations and Alias software, and it's very nice! I've just preached the…
