<< < (2/2)

hageir:
It runs on the Yamaha C1 Music Computer (8X8 MIDI OUT/IN)

Jan Hammer used it on Miami Vice back in the day (along with UpBeat and JamFactory).

The very first MIDI sequencer on the market IIRC was the Hybrid Arts Master Tracks Pro for the Atari 800. HA MTPro was introduced in 1983, while the Atari 800 was introduced at the Winter Consumer Electronics exposition in 1982. You needed an extra add-on serial port to get the whole setup to work, since the Atari 800 didn't come with one out of the box.

Do you have any more information on Hybrid Arts Master Tracks Pro for the Atari 800? I'm having a hard time finding stuff.

It looks like they got the name wrong. This page seems to indicate that it was called MIDITrack.

Interesting.
The MiST/MiSTer FPGA emulation platform has an Atari800+ core.

I wonder if support for the integrated MIDI DIN could be added by integrating the MIDIMate into the software. :o

--- Quote ---There was this company not to far where I lived, that still exists,called The Electronic Barn. We would get parts and hack the Machines and build things to make music and whatever else we could dream up. The parts were cheap, so we were able to experiment. After that we got hold of all sorts of other Machines and modified and programmed them: Trs80’s(trash 80), Timex Sinclair, Atari 400 and 800, Commodore 64, Pet 2001, IBM PC JR, Magnavox Odyssey(with the voice module), But no matter what machine we used, we always programmed some kind of game. So about 3 years went by and I got my hands on a Compaq portable (it wasn’t really all that portable by today’s standards) but that’s when I learned how machines and music could be combined (Mpu 401 and Texture).
