Years ago, AtariST and Cubase. I once, borrowed a Yamaha DX7, and hooked it up to my AtariST.
What was so special about the AtariST ? Well in general not that much, but it was used by a lot of artist, because it came with a midi in and a midi out port.
For the younger people on this forum, this might come as a surprise. But in the early days of Cubase, there was an Atari and Mac version, but no pc version. Pc's in those days run DOS, and windows was not yet released, or was about to be released.
The sound does not come from the Atari, nor from Cubase. In the below vid, the roland midi device is making the sound.
The Atari with Cubase was the sequencer.
And Cubase came on floppies, 3.5 inch.
