Oh, the KCS. I bought this in 1987 for around £200. Two hundred pounds. Was I insane? I was running a small studio in NE England and I hoped to encourage the notably conservative musical community in my town to dive into the world of electronic music. I didn't succeed. Even now, in 2018, you'd go years between sightings of a synth or a laptop onstage in this town of 120,000 people. I never really got to grips with this software, although it ran happily with a sync code track recorded on my Tascam 80-8 tape machine, giving me a lot of virtual extra tracks. On my Atari 1040 STE, a marvellous machine for music with built-in MIDI sockets, the KCS interface was far less than intuitive. The manual in its substantial ring-binder didn't inspire creativity. I never encountered anyone else using it, either.
I've installed an Atari emulator in my Windows 10 laptop and I'll see if I can make more progress with KCS thirty-one years later. If other people using KCS want to tell me how they are getting on, please do so. All advice welcomed.
