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?
