I don't know much about MIDI on the Amiga, but I saw (my personal

many more STs doing music work than Amigas. If Amiga had this by

particular niche,
at least around here.
I've seen this too. STs seem to be generally known as "music
computers" by less-technical people who were around during that era.

And the built-in MIDI. That was its killer feature to
my musician
buddy who
used an ST up until only a few years ago, when he replaced it
with a Mac.
What is this, 1987? Amiga realized the importance of MIDI. I
still have my
pre-release handmade dongle that RJ sent me. Commercial MIDI
adapters were
pretty cheap, which satisfied the tiny fraction of the market who
wanted MIDI.
