111.0. "New MIDI software package..." by RAINBO::SAVAGE () Mon Jul 08 1985 18:19

I was talking on the Phone with Daddy's Junky Music today and one of the
guys down there says there is a new software package coming out from Roland
called "MPS" that will be the "definitive, de-facto, standard, everyone will
love it, don't but anything else, oh my gawd, I can't believe it..."
recording/editing package. Anyone out there know anything about this yet? 

Along those lines is there anyone who has used the new Roger Powell/Cherry Tree
Texture package? I've seen the box and all that but there is never an IBM at 
any of these stores.

By the way this new Roland big deal is also supposed to run on the Apple with
some sort of memory induced limitation. I should also mention that it's going
to be dependent on having an MPU-401....

This sounds enticing, but don't hold your breath.  These guys preannounce
even more than the computer industry.  What I've read about MPS makes
it seem like a nice package, and Texture also looks nice, but until I
see it run on an Apple I won't believe the Apple version is real.  Cherry
Lane has been advertising Texture on the Apple for months, but the last
time I called them it still wasn't ready.
