They have a full page ad on page 83. The thing that caught my fancy was their "competitive upgrade" concept. Regular price is $159.95 US, but if you own *any* other company's sequencing software, in a registered copy, you can get this new software for $89.95. All you have to do is fax them either 1. A photocopy of the program disk(s) you own, or 2. A photocopy of a page from the sequencer's manual. (The ad says to "contact us for details," and this is what their representative told me. This offer is good until March 1, she said.) The only other things I know are that she said it will work with any Windows compatible soundcards, including SoundBlaster 16, although they reccomend a "full duplex" soundcard. With the SB16 (half duplex) you can record while playing back MIDI, but not while playing back digital audio. With full duplex, you can play and record digital sound at the same time. You may have up to 1000 tracks, each assignable to either MIDI or digital audio, and you recording time is limited only by your hard drive space. Everything else I know is in the Keyboard Mag Ad. Hope this helps, and I hope i didn't sound like a commercial. I have never seen or used this product. If anyone else knows more, I'd love to hear.

Thanks to the folks who emailed follow-ups and enquiries; here's an answer. I remember some recent thread about cubbyholing (which we in the UK would refer to as pigeonholing, since pigeons are smaller than cubbies). This is, of course, as true in the Arts as in popular media. Sometimes people and companies manage to break through and establish new media (or blur the old ones), but it's hard work and takes a long time. (Terry Pratchett always claims that it took him twenty years to become an overnight success.) In the subsidised arts, there is no objective measure of merit, and hence arbitrary subjective measures are given disproportionate weight. One such measure is applicability to particular beaurocratic processes (project funding, tour programmes, development, teaching, etc.). Another measure is political acceptability, which is directly proportional to a discipline's herd instinct and inversely proportional to the degree of threat. The problem is that a lot of what I'm visualising in my head is a threat to two disciplines: contemporary dance and contemporary music. It threatens the dance scene because I am not a dancer or choreographer, and yet I have clear ideas of the way styles and schools of dance work, of how to judge and rate dancers, and of how to develop work which integrates dance and live sound in new and interesting ways. (I also have an ego; but it comes with the territory.) So what about the contemporary music scene? I'm sure there are folks on EMUSIC-L who know a lot more about that than I do. My problem *here* is that I didn't study Advanced Plink-Boing with Pierre Boulez for three years, and don't have the credentials. I'm not going to claim that I can do a lot better than these people; I'm only hoping that I can give them a run for their money. (Literally.) But I don't know whether I fit into this scene any better than the dance scene. I guess one problem is that I'm not concerned with making music as the final product when it comes to performance work; I'm concerned with making dance performance. And yet the most successful composers for dance (Volans, Fitkin, Fisher-Turner, Fulkerson, ...) basically record scores, and are most concerned with making music; dance projects are basically commissions. This is, of course, non-threatening to the dance community. So, what to do? The plans are the same, the projects are going to be the same, but the political maneouvering is going to have to be a lot more subtle. This year's plan is to do the album, next year's plan is collaboration (as musician, not as performance company) with one of the big names in the London dance scene, as a serious profile-raising initiative. But, much as the arts funding bodies are keen on cross-media projects, they only seem to work when people stick to their own respective pigeonholes and don't cross over too much. It's a shame.

Yes, it's like the Scholastic Average Test (SAT) for college admissions in the States: you gotta be "smart" in the same way that the testers are, or you won't pass the test. >One such measure is applicability to particular bureaucratic processes >project funding, tour programmes, development, teaching, etc.). Tell me: am I understanding you correctly? In order to get funding you have to show that: you've won moneys before; you've performed your show throughout the UK; your programme has expanded since its inception; and you've been instrumental in the expansion of the minds of fellow Scots via the classroom or some other venue? >Another measure is political acceptability, which is directly proportional >to a discipline's herd instinct and inversely proportional to the degree >of threat. Aha! So to get public you have to appeal to the public?? For the most part it's the same here, thanks to a certain Senator from North Carolina...The Most Honorable Jesse Helms :^( His biggest goal in life seems to be gay-bashing, repression of publicly funded artistic expression, and cow-towing to the tobacco industry (N.Carolina grows a lot of the stuff). Ironic...$$ spent annually on dealing with the effects of tobacco smoking must be over a thousand times that spent on supporting the arts (this is only a guess)! However, there are grants which specifically fund collaborations which won't be funded anywhere else. I was part of one which was funded for $6000 to explore "Feminine Fertility and Flux" with five other artists (no dancers, though). It's funded by the Andy Warhol Foundation, the Carnegie Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts. The project was really was pretty cool, if controversial. There aren't any grants along those lines in the UK? >The problem is that a lot of what I'm visualizing in my head is a threat >to two disciplines: contemporary dance and contemporary music. It >threatens the dance scene because I am not a dancer or choreographer, and >yet I have clear ideas of the way styles and schools of dance work, of how >to judge and rate dancers, and of how to develop work which integrates >dance and live sound in new and interesting ways. That's a pisser! I think the only way innovative art-- that is, art which breaks out of those infamous cubbyholes-- is engendered, is by just such threats! An artistic threat is one in which the audience is forced to think in new ways. I've got a Fred Babb T-shirt which says "Art Can't Hurt You" and another one which states, "Good Art Doesn't Match Your Sofa!" I think the people who hold the purse-strings for public funding are many times afraid that art which doesn't match their sofa will hurt them! >(I also have an ego; but it comes with the territory.) Hmm. Haven't noticed. =:-0 >So what about the contemporary music scene?

Doesn't shear experience count for something in the UK??? You've certainly got that, from what I can tell from your posts and your HTTP site.

Maybe 20 years ago, but... >I guess one problem is that I'm not concerned with making music as the >final product when it comes to performance work; I'm concerned with making >dance performance. Good for you! I think that's the right spirit: a true synthesis of the art forms. Neither one pulling the other. Neither form can be really appreciated without the other in your vision...it would feel as if something were missing, right? >dance projects are basically commissions. This is, of course, >non-threatening to the dance community. Why does that fail to threaten the dance community? It would seem that they (the dance company) would feel like an also-ran instead of an integral part of the performance! >...as the arts funding bodies are keen on cross-media projects, they only >seem to work when people stick to their own respective pigeonholes and >don't cross over too much. It's a shame. Do the record and collaboration with an uplifted spirit, Nick. Be even more patient than you have been, and remember, "If you play, they will come." Yes, you have to be more well-known to start calling the shots on making your artistic dreams a reality...as long as you are dependent upon public .

I'm trying to get Windows Unisyn and an 8Port/SE working together, and there is a huge snag. I set the windows drivers for each profile to the appropriate ones for the devices attatched to the 8Port. But then Unisyn comes up with the error message "Can't lock memory in the driver header". Unisyn crashes quite ungracefully -- all I can do is continue to hit the cancel button (which has no effect) or reboot the machine. I'm running Unisyn version 1.2. With it I'm using the JV-880, UltraProteus, QuadraVerb GT, HR-16, SR-16, and D-4 profiles. The 8Port/SE has version 3 roms, 8portse.exe is version 1.0, and the 8Port/SE driver is version 1.3a (the latest, I'm assured, by opcode tech support). The computer is a 386DX/40 with 4 megabytes of memory. Windows 3.1 is running with around 16-32Mb of virtual memory (or what passes for virtual memory in Microsoft land.) The paralell port controller has been working fine for some time now. Cakewalk (professional, 3.0) works (so far) with the driver, so I don't think it's a hardware or cabeling problem. Since I have an old sound SB16 card, and Unisyn worked fine through the MIDI cables on the back of that, I've tried to work it so that the 8Port operates only as a patch bay, using the the SB16 drivers. I haven't tinkered with it enough to get it to work, but I don't think I should have to tinker, given what I paid for the 8Port. Please reply via email, or call me at (201) 267-3840. I'll call you back if you must be spared the expense of the call. Thank you.

We've had correspondents from Spain before (and some of them might still be here -- hello to you all), but, as I remember, they've mostly been concerned with more popular culture (or on synth-l, bits of gear). Are there any cool electronic music composers from there -- besides yourself of course!-- whom we should be looking out for? > My query is for those listers who are interested in Artificial Intelligence > applied in music and they agree to share with me any bibliographic > references Sure. For a start, there's a collection of COmputer Music Journal articles called Music and Connectionism... Todd, Peter M. and D. Gareth Loy (1991) Music and Connectionism. Cambridge MA: MIT Press. and... Proceedings of the International Computer Music Conference. San Francisco: International Computer Music Association. Any year of the ICMC proceedings has AI stuff in it. You shuld be able to get a hold of these, at least by inter-library loan. And if you're teaching thie stuff, I'd recommend that your library gets copies. Of course, there's the Computer Music Journal itself. Four issues a year. I think it was a couple of issues of vol 19 (1992 or thereabouts) which were all about neural nets.
