Has anyone out in net-land heard about this machine made by Yamaha called
the Music Computer? My information on it is sparse, but I'll tell what I
know: It's a micro computer that runs MSX (OS that is supposed to compatable
with MSDOS that Japanese micros use) and has optional synth keyboards that
plug into the back. I think it is MIDI compatable and I hope that you can
write programs to manipulate the MIDI recording/digital filtering features
(but I'm not sure about this.) The price I've heard is about $850 (extra for
keyboards.) Does anyone have any info on this machine or any other machines
that are both programable computers and music synthesizers?
