Naw, I've left many messages on their bulletin board, and they just delete them. I'm hoping that V1.7 will fix the bug.
Ok, thanks Keith, I appreciate the help. George
#Command filter
Message #28306
I'm using Access! V1.42 for my comm program. Does anybody know a way to filter the color commands I receive from various BBS's. I always answer "NO" to ANSI graphics, but some BBS's still send color text commands, which I'd like to screen out. Thanks, George

Midi Studio Tape Sync
Message #6845
BTW, many drum machines will also lay a sync track down. The specialized boxes have more features tho. Good luck, George
Print Resolution
Message #4591
Can someone explain Screen resolution VS Print Resolution. I'm trying to set up "ComicSetter" to produce the best hardcopy and I'm lost. Using the new 1.3 preferences, I can select my print resolution (I have an Epson LQ800 24 pin) up to 360×180 dpi but since the screen size is…
You said it Rick!!! I HATE the copy protection of Dr. T's. Sometimes Dr. T bombs on the legitimate original disk, which of course, bombs the whole system. I've also had my original disk go bad, and since the backup I ordered hadn't arrived yet, I got to program my…
KCS upgrade
Message #1828
Dr. T's has added support for the infernal sound channels of the Amiga in it's KCS sequencer. KCS 1.6A allows for 16 IFF sounds to be loaded at one time. So far, it's working great. George Glines
That's the settings I have, except I haven't seen a brief = yes. What I've seen is menu or command and I am in command mode. George
I've gotten Whap to go online now. It will get me into a forum, start to read the message headers (maybe 10 or so) and then just hang…I've tried waiting up to 6 minutes. The hangup and abort gadgets don't work here. Nothing I type will go to the modem.…
So, if I want to call at different baud rates, I have to run preferences first (using Access!)?
Steve, but if you name the disk Whap, you can't assign Whap to a subdirectory, right? Anyway, I renamed the disk and assigned to a sub-directory and the program loads now. Thanks! George
Well, I sort of got Whap! to run, at least it dialed CIS, but once Access!30a loaded, I couldn't communicate with CIS. Any characters I enter just appear as xxxxxx on the Access! screen? George
I'm having trouble with the assign direction. What is Assign Whap: stuff doing? Is the volume name Whap or Whap! Are you assigning a disk name to a file? I tried assigning Whap: to a directory where I put the Sig files in and It wouldn't work….I dunna understan???
#AudioMaster Woes
Message #131312
I just bought the Perfect Sound Sampler for use with AudioMaster, but I can't get the waveform centered at zero. My waveforms are centered below the zero crossing point which makes setting good loops a pain. In other words, I am experiencing the same problem that AudioMaster has with the…

TxEd+ bug
Message #119791
I'd like to report the following problem with TxEd+. Using the following startup-sequence: mount vd0: dir > nil: vd0: runback -4 c/FaccII RTClock /R c/ScreenBlanker2 240 c/ff Resident c/copy c/dir c/list c/info c/cd c/delete runback -S2000 c/funkeys -R "ram:qs\N" "ram:rm\N" stack 4000 c/setfont clean 8 and then running TxEd+, if…
Interesting, one of the disks I transferred the new ARP files to has a read/ write error now too! When I saw the TxEd+ disk without a plastic case, I shouldhave figured there would be trouble. I've had at least 10 disks that were mailed without the slip cover with…
#ARP Help!
Message #119537
I just received my TxEd+ upgrade in the mail, but userdocs.arc won't unarc due to a disk read/write error. Can anyone please give me the syntax for the "ARUN" arp command (the replacement for runback)? Thanks, George Glines 74206,2624
Thanks Ed, I'll look through the manual again and see if I can find that. George

Printer Reset?
Message #117296
Is there a way to send a reset to the printer from WordPerfect? I've been trying to print out disk labels using WP. The first label will print out fine, but subsequent labels will lose the margin and font settings. The only way to fix this is to shut the…

Rick, Thanks for the info! I compared the sounds of several drum machines and I thought the HR16 sounded fantastic- especially considering the price. It's very easy to program, and seems more than flexible enough for my needs. The manual is pretty good but doesn't go into any detail on…
#Y Ching
Message #114361
Rick, Is it okay to take the stereo outs of my drum machine (or anything else- reverbs, synths, etc.) and using a "Y" cable plug into an amp? I have Yo'mamaha's KS10 keyboard amp/speakers. I remember reading something about not summing inputs or outputs or shotputs???, because the signals would…
Thanks for the reply John. I hate it when I'm the only one to find bugs in programs..it makes you doubt your sanity . I'll give them a call. George
MaxiPlan gurus at random, I am trying all possible combinations of programs to see if I can find a consistent pattern. I was hoping there was a known compatibility problem between Maxi and a program I was running…now I'll have to find it the hard way . Thanks, George
#MaxiPlan Plus
Message #109984
I've just purchased MaxiPlan Plus and am guruing constantly. I have an Amiga 1000 and the program comes set up on a 500/2000 workbench disk. Is the 1000 incompatible with the 500/2000 workbench? I'm also running FaccII by ASDG and Screenblanker2 by MicroSmiths, inc. Any suggestions as to the most…

#KCS VS Music-X
Message #109879
Rick, Thanks for the reply! I wonder if using and synching the internal voices will be possible if the program doesn't have that built it. New Wave wasn't able to get Dynamic Drums to synch with any other program (they have a sequencer with DD built in now). Interesting about…
Thanks for the reply Rick. I look forward to the reviews, it's been a long wait for software! When the boom box comes, I'll let you know how it works out. George
DMCS & MIDI Sync
Message #107483
Rick, I've got an Alesis drum machine on order from MAO, and I have some questions. DMCS sends out Midi time info (24pqn), and Midi start and stop messages. Will I be able to program the drum machine using it's internal sequencer and then be able to have the drum…

Thanks Arno. Changing to the "black & white" setting did it. Is PS V1.1 available now? Also, when will ComicSetter ship (eagerly awaiting)? George Glines

PageSetter Problems
Message #105097
Thanks Bill! I'll try that out. George
Rick, Thanks for the reply. I am bouncing some tracks on my 4-track so a noise gate might be a good purchase. Alesis has a new micro-rack model out for $125 list (stereo input); one or two of those would be all I'd need. What are downward expanders & adaptive…
#Noise Gates
Message #96856
Rick, Do most synths (Amiga?) output any noise even when not playing notes? I'm wondering if it would be worthwhile to have a noise gate between the Amiga and a mixer; or between my FB01 and mixer. When I have the Amiga hooked up to my powered speakers, I seem…
Don, radio is amazing! I can always pull in every station but the one I want. I think the FCC doles out power ratings based on how obnoxious the music is . George
#Radio Interference
Message #96445
Rick, I guess I'm safe Rick. I recorded with the gains all the way up and couldn't hear any radio. That's a relief- thanks. I tried a couple of pairs of headphones and found my cheap ones pick up the radio the best. Thanks, George
#Radio Interference
Message #96258
I just discovered that I can hear (faintly) a local radio station by plugging the headphones in my multi-track (power on). This also works downstairs with my stereo system. Can I assume I'm recording radio signal when making tapes with the multi-track? I live about 3 miles from the station…
PageSetter 1.0 Update
Message #92940
Anbody know if the rumored update to PS 1.0 is true? I don't mean "Professional Page", but a PageSetter 1.1 version. Thanks, George Glines
Rick, went into a ultra-tiny electronics store on a lark, and wouldn't you know…they had the battery! Only 3 bucks too. Life can be fair. I tried the cable out and it works too! The mic has a low-imp output. Specs say 150-ohm balanced output with an output level of…
Cables & 4.5v
Message #86236
Rick, I just bought a mic from Bernie at MAO but I need some help. This mic an Electrovoice BK-1 has the three pin connector. I need to get a cable for it that ends in 1/4 plug. My local music store has a Peavey cable that fits but he…
Ok, thanks Rick, I'll ask around. George
#Mic Choice
Message #84604
Rick, I'm looking for a decent (read $150.00) microphone for the following uses- vocals, recording acoustic guitar and banjo, and taking samples with the Amiga. I realize you're supposed to have a different microphone for every use, but I can't afford that now. This is for a low-ball home studio.…
Audio Magic
Message #82219
I have really enjoyed the great Sonix scores that used the forthcoming Audio Magic (Master?). Will this program let me sample with my Mimetics sampler? Only about 1 out of every 10 sounds or instruments I create will load into Sonix (I hear Perfect Sound has the same trouble). I…

Hi, I have WP on order. Did you meet your 7/15/87 ship date? Thanks, George Glines
#Amiga timing cont.
Message #70270
Rick, regarding the Amiga's timing resolution…I have a product brochure for "Music-X" by MicroIllusions which lists a 5 millisecond clock resolution and 192 pulses per 1/4 note, which is about even with what Gotcher says the ST is capable of doing. Gosh, now if only midi interfaces for the Amiga…
