    C Compiler & 68k asm

    Thanks all for the replies! I had an experience (15 years ago) for coding gouraud shaded 3d engine for Amiga AGA with 030 and 060 processors. Yes, I did it on a similar way - drafting algos on C and optimizing that on 68k asm. Does anybody knows if Think C supports 020-030 opcodes in its...

    C Compiler & 68k asm

But I am a newbie at 68k Mac development, so I cannot understand how to use (and where to get) classic Mac OS C-headers and libraries (object...

    Does SE/30 has enough speed and performance to operate with up to 16 MIDI channels while playing/recording of complex melodies? Are there anyone who tried to use SE/30 in studio in the past? :) "But Serial MIDI boxes were available back in the day" - I found a lot of cheap and cool Opcode...

    SE/30 as MIDI sequencer

    Hi all. I'm collecting old rack synthesizers, samplers and so on. Is it possible to control all of them simultaneously from some kind of MIDI sequencing software? As I know Atari ST had Steinberg Cubase which allows to record and playback a lot of MIDI-tracks. Could I use my SE/30 for making a...
