Hi greg - thanks for your response to my postings.
I've posted this here because I have never successfully
mailed anything from this net to ARPA-net.

RE: Emile Tobenfeld - yeah Dr. T.
I've talked with him extensively already.
His software does *seem* impressive - but he hasn't convinced
me that there are no sync problems with the C-64 interface.
You see, since he uses the same piece of hardware as Sequential,
I don't believe that the timing is compatible with the Oberheim
DX drum machine.  I am planning on finding out though - so I'll
let you know.

I didn't find Dr. T too abrasive - just very busy.  
Also, he started a lot of hype when he established me
as a potential customer.  
He has software for storing and editing DX7 patches on the C-64
and although it wasn't the most user-friendly code I've ever run
(whatever that means), I use it with no major complaints.
I have a few tricks on the patch librarian if you're interested.

I have had one other response from another ARPA-netter who wants
to trade patches.  I'll probably post a file we can use to fill
in the numbers.

Take care.
John
