- It depends on what you want. I'm a professional musician and I
- really like Music-X. The upgrade to 2.0 was nice, but it was a very minor
- one that didn't deserve a 2.0 designation. I personally think B&P is the
- joke; the only thing I ever use it for is to sync my AD516 to midi
- clocks. To me it's slow, it doesn't multitask internally
- (try doing something in it while you're saving one of its bloated files),
- and the non-standard interface really is cartoony. On a more serious
- side, it doesn't cope with samples in any useful way (many times I have
- used 8 bit samples in Music-X for effects that would have been impossible
- with anything else), and worst of all, if you happen to have a guitar
- synth it will only record one channel per track; that means your guitar
- part will be spread across SIX channels. Try editing *that* some time!
- The notation is pretty bad, too.
