DEC PDP/8.  First computer that I made music with was a Texas

Instrument model, much like the Vic-20.  I supposed I also

programmed assembly code into an Intel 8085 development station

to play the theme from "Close Encounters...".  The first computer

I did any serious music with was a Pentium I running Redhat 4.0.

SoX was the first music program that got me really excited.  That

was very long ago, sometime in the mid to late 1980s.  SoX was also

the back-end part of my first serious music adventure, which used

SoundStudio as its front-end.  I mastered an entire CD using that

combination back in 1999.
It was soooo much easier to work with Ardour last night on my

dual-core Athlon. :-)
