The December issue of Musician Magazine features an article on my work with computers and music. Haven't seen it yet, but the photos should show my A3000. A little mainstream press for our favorite machine! Best, Nick Didkovsky 72250,3313

Nick, >The December issue of Musician Magazine features an article on my work with >computers and music. I read the article. Way cool! I've used Deluxe Music to compose some really twisted stuff by attempting to write riffs that I hear in my head and by sort of throwing notes on the staff. I haven't gotten around to rehearsing to it yet, but I use Music-X to rehearse to in much the same way. Nice shot of the A3000. Jeremy Smithson

Thanks for responding and for checking out the article (and for confirming that the Amiga is indeed visible in the photo!) You're right – Deluxe Music is a pretty fabulous tool for composing twisted stuff. If only it could go to version 2.1 to fix a few little bugs… Take care, Nick PS If you ever want to expand DMusic2's functionality check out RiffGrabber (you play live MIDI and it notates and exports to DMusic) and Deluxe MIDI Converter (exports format 1 MIDI files).

Hi John – thanks for the cheer (but why are you called me 'R'ick?). Anyway, good to hear you're still pushing the tools to their limits. Best, Nick

Sorry Nick, I was thinking about the sign off (John & Rick)………. …….I guess <g> BTW..any progress on the DMusic to MOD idea? John

There's no chance I'll be doing the DMusic to MOD code anywhere in the near future. Best idea is to look for a good MIDI -> MOD converter, and feed the MIDI files created by Deluxe MIDI COnverter to this tool. I tested one, but it didn't change instruments properly. Otherwise was pretty hip. Best, Nick

Nick, I know you used the software you wrote, but what utility did you use for MIDI > MOD? John
