Can anyone tell me what music creation/playback systems work on a Mac ][?
Which are best?

MIDI capability would be nice, but I don't have a synth yet, so it would
have to be able to make its own sounds also.

I would prefer something cheap. Two that I've seen advertized or reviewed
are "Studio Session" and "Concertware+MIDI" ($60 and $80 respectively).
	Anyone used either of these?
	Do they work with a Mac ][?
	Can you print out the music you write?
	Are the file formats standard (I'm interesting in doing some
		automatic composition stuff)?
	Are the sounds using the built in hardware decent? 

Thanks for any help,

	Mike
