     I would like some help please. I am buying an IBM AT clone this week and
plan to use it as a midi "controller", sequencer. I plan to use existing
software, but desire to write some of my own as well. I have a Korg DSS-1 and
I've always hated the interface. My first project will be to remedy that.
My second project will be to replace my MC500 capabilities so I can sell my
MC500.

Now, The question. Does anyone have advice on which midi interface card to
get? Are there big differences? Can you point me to a summary or comparison
of various cards? I don't really need a full blown compositional interface
right away. Are there any cheap and basic sequencers? (Cheap is the operative 
word here.) I can barely afford the PC, but the midi capability is a necessary
first step. It's half the reason I want a PC.

Thanks in advance for any and all help. I'm new on this system and have had
trouble getting email to go anywhere. My apologies in advance if you get
frustrated trying to reach me.
