MicroLogic Fun 4.0.4b MIDI Sequencer for Classic Mac OS.

Hi folks,

A while back I obtained a PowerBook 1400cs (now 1400c :) ), partly to play around with hardware based MIDI sequencing. I found that my copy of Cubase Lite didn't really run properly on the PowerBook 1400, but a month or so later I came across a MacFormat UK CD for January 2000 which contained a free, full version of emagic's MIcroLogic Fun. It's cut-down from their other projects because it can only handle 16 MIDI channels (and no audio), but is more than capable of substituting for Cubase Lite as it works in a very similar way and has equivalent (actually, better) features.

Because Apple bought out emagic a couple of years later and their product Logic™ is their current flagship audio application, MicroLogic Fun is (in my opinion) a valuable piece of Digital Archeology, I spent some time tracking down permission from one of the developers of the original MicroLogic Fun, Felix Bertram who put me in contact with Markus Fritze who is currently a Sr. Software Engineering Manager at Apple Inc.

The application is now available on Macintosh Garden. I hope you find it useful.

Excellent work :)

Might be an idea to blur the email address in that email screenshot for the sake of the individual? The one on Mac Garden.

Thanks! I've updated it now. It's not actually that hard to find his email address, I just googled the developer's name and it appeared. He uses it as a business address for his hardware and software projects, but you're right, it's better if I don't.
