Dalton Software Stores, Crown Books, Software Etc., selected WaldenBooks Stores, and Walden's Software Store locations. From The Managing Editor When Music and Sound Take Center Stage. This issue of AC features many of the different avenues available to the Amiga musician. Although we have loaded this issue with Amiga music examples, we complete it knowing we have not been able to cover every possible combination. The Amiga's sound capabilities are a good reason this computer excels as a multimedia platform. Sound is literally the voice of the Amiga. Through software it is possible to craft a sound as completely as crafting a graphic image. By modifications of sound waves and selections of diverse digitized sources, Amiga artists can create me exact sound they want. The only drawback encountered would be the same hazard experienced by the graphic artist-output. In order for an image to carry the maximum impact available, the graphic artist must bow to the best output device available. This is true whether it be a screen display, a video recording, or a prim-out. Without me proper output device, the artist's work remains trapped in the electronic circuitry of the artist's Amiga. Sound has similar restrictions. It is easy to hear the sound you are creating through the speakers of your Amiga, yet attach the Amiga to a stereo system and me sound is so much richer in tone and quality. Amiga sound artists (musicians and others) resort to better and better hardware systems in order to create the sound quality they need. This may be as simple as buying better speakers or a better stereo, to equipping your Amiga with the latest and biggest MIDI keyboard. Additional sound capabilities of the Amiga are available through software.
