John, A friend of mine at a multimedia company was talking (yesterday) about them using a computer to centralise the PCs/Lasers/Pyrotechnics etc…controlling them all and timing them together via midi. I was fairly sure that Scala had a programme, 100MM that could do this operation. Is this correct??? 1/ They think that "midi" is the timing system that could link all the hardware they use. 2/ I think that some of what they do has to be tied together with more than one timming system. 3/This friend has an Amiga 2000/GVP accelerator and Scala. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks Laurie Carroll AKL NZ Longdistance Autopilot

Laurie, I've been using this program for many years as a MIDI control program. Many Broadway shows use it for controlling moving lights, and it's currently running sound for Ralph Fiennes' Hamlet at the Belasco in NYC. It's also used by Disney, Universal Studios and other theme parks as a system controller. It will lock to MIDI Time Code or its own internal clock and can talk MIDI, MIDI Show Control and MIDI Machine Control. You can have control over the program via remote control, or sync the whole thing to time-of-day clock using the Amiga's internal clock. Charlie Richmond can be reached at crichmond@acs.ucalgary.ca Say I sent you. Regards, John A. On AutoPilot all the way from the U.K.
