I hope it wasn't too obscure! I had an exhibit in the 1980 one which was
called the "Personal Computer Arts Festival". The music was the first day,
visual art the second. For your interest, the music program was:
Hal Chamberlin, High quality music synthesis outside of real-time using
microcomputers.
Laurie Speigel, Computer Composition systems.
Rob Moore, The Apple orchestra.
Joe Wilson, Computer control of an analog synthesizer.
Steve Levine, A collection of computer music experiments for the hobbyist.
Bill Mauchly, A discussion of timbre in computer music synthesis.
Roger Meyers, A synopsis of computer music composition and techniques
>from MUSIC 5 to the Synclavier.
Rebecca Mercuri, Digital sound research at RCA.
Kevin Doren, The Crumar gwneral development system; a large scale
digital synthesizer.
Jon Bondy, The Casheab 32 voice synthesizer for the S-100 bus.
Stuart Newfeld, A disk based music editor and four voice synthesizer for the
S-100 bus.
Ellen Lapham, Charles Kellner, The Alpha Syntauri computer music keyboard.
Cliff Ashcraft, Frank Covitz, Enhanced software for music synthesis using the
6502.
AB Computers, The visible music monitor.
The evening concert was by:
Laurie Spiegal, Hal Chamberlin, Rob Moore, and Frank Covitz & Cliff Ashcraft.
Hal C. played (in real time, of course) Bach's T. and Fugue in D minor from
a 12.5Mb file, a lot of floppy swapping.

Check this out. If you want to make a quick $90 on any VS3100's you've
got, this fellow's looking. I only have one left, so I'm hanging onto it
for now.

http://table.jps.net/~kyrrin -- also kyrrin [A-t] Jps {D=o=t} Net
Spam is bad. Spam is theft of service. Spam wastes resources. Don't spam, period.
I am a WASHINGTON STATE resident. Spam charged $500.00 per incident per Chapter 19 RCW.
I recently got one of those combo drives -- the one with both a
5.25" and a 3.5" floppy built in. It is the Teac FD505... I
currently have a Teac FD-55GFV (RX33) on my RQDX3 at home... is
anyone familiar with the two drives? Can I replace eht RX33 with
the combo drive and get it to work? I've already tried simply
using it as distributed... and the controller (sorry, its the
RQZX1 controller, not RQDX3) sees the two drives. But when I
try to access either, they get directory read errors on disks I
know should work...
Any help appreciated...

I'm interested in whatever information you can provide... I've had this
for awhile, but have had no documentation or even code to drive it, so
I couldn't figure it out.
I worked with the MicroPower/Pascal people way back when they worked
on the star wars cantina demo, but I never had a doc set for the
board...
Any help MUCH appreciated...

Someone mentioned staroffice. Do they still offer 3.x for download? I
couldn't find it anywhere, though Caldera is selling 4.0 for $20. Where
is the website? I thought it was www.stardivision.com.

Actually, the 'MK10' stood for 'Music Kludge - 10' and apparently
consisted of something attached to the accumulator lights (which
the software flashed on and off at the appropriate fequencies).
We called our board the MK11-B (Music Kludge - 11, revision B). The
Rev A was my initial circuit which was one SGC driven by a DR11C on
the pdp-11/10 I have at home.
