Review

Composer Holsinger's practical experience on the computer allows him to share insider's tips on the latest technology in personal music production. His assessments of how MIDI works, how personal computers use digital audio, and how to use a Mac or PC MIDI system provides the specifics which incorporate applications with technical information. Add an audio CD with interviews, musical examples and demos and you have a fine package for newcomers as well as practiced MIDI users. -- Midwest Book Review
