Oh wow.  Them some dirty words in my memory!  Was yours the version with the blue interface that ran in a high res DOS text mode?  Mind you, it still I/O'ed MIDI no probs and had a solid piano roll.  It's just ashame you got stuck with the MIDI presets and couldn't program it like those smart arse CMF guys.

Music Construction Set was also my intro to music, but on the C64 :-)  It's ported to a whole load of machines; although I had no idea about the Tandy version.

Booted it up and found literally the first pieces of music I ever "composed" as a kid. This is surreal. It's in that exact same music program that was shown in the video!
