Well, Steve Pope at ParcPlace Systems has what looks to be a
fabulous MIDI system done in Smalltalk.  It'll run on a Mac II,
and given the fact that the latest ParcPlace Systems Smalltalk
a) supports user-written primitives, and b) runs under $1,000 on the
Mac II, plus the fact that with Smalltalk, you get full source to
the entire world, it looks like the ultimate "kickass" MIDI
system to me.  I can't wait.
