Nice !!

Oliver, I need to take the MIDI to a place where our ensemble meets. No way
to carry my PC and there isn't one over there. I have a Bose Acoustic Wave
system wich is portable and sounds great. That's what I want to use. I
looked up on www.download.com for a shareware program but couldn't tell
from descriptions which did what. Might there be an editor somewhere that
allows you to input the MIDI and output the WAV ? I should be able to get
70 + minutes of WAV per CD, right ?

I'd like to be able to delete the two clarinet tracks, then rename the file.
Then convert from MIDI to WAV and burn the result on a CD. Sounds easy but
apparently not, huh ?

Erik, I have the Adaptec EZ CD Creator 4 which came bundled with this PC's
software. But, I can't find the sndedit.exe file on my PC or on the
Adaptec CD.

Regards,
Bob L.
