559.0. "Help chosing MIDI software...." by USRCV1::HOLTJ () Mon Aug 07 1989 01:00

    My sister has a Korg (M1?) system.  She would like to use an Atari
    1040 �s a source of storage through the MIDI ports.   I would like
    some suggestions on possible software choices.  At a minimum, she
    needs additional storage (her keyboard has about 50k).
    
    Thanks in advance for any help...

Joe,

    I've heard that Steinberg do a good M1 editor/librarian, but I
haven't got an M1 so it's hard for me to judge it personally :-(

Cheers,

559.2Korg M1... the biz !!!COMICS::DSMMGRMon Aug 07 1989 05:5619
    Hi Joe,
    
    
    I too have the Korg M1 and find it the business !!! As for using
    the ST for additional storage, it really depends on what you mean.
    If you're looking for a sequencer then there are a few around. PRO-24
    is wonderful, but the latest offering from Steinberg is CUBASE.
    I have read a review and it sounds all singing and all dancing really,
    but be warned it requires a mono monitor and also costs 500 pounds
    sterling. On the cheap side there is a PD 32 track sequencer, which
    whilst basic does work. 
    
    On the non sequencer side, there is BUMP or BULKDUMP which allows
    you to save program, global and sequence data from the M1. It is
    a dump utility and works without problem. This is NOT a sequencer
    and so songs would have to be generated on the onboard M1 sequencer
    and then dumped to disk. I use it a lot and have found it invaluable.

Just remember, BULKDUMP and BUMP are DEC internal use only (unless you talk
to CANDID::BAILEY first and he okays it).
