Subject: Challenge for someone with CS-80 (MIDI?) or CS80v

Happy New Year everyone!
Here's a challenge to start the year. I was sorting out a of ton of
files on my PC and found some MIDIs of Eddie Jobson/UK. I just
uploaded the files "Presto Vivace and Reprise.mp3" and "presto.mid" to
the Files/PRESTO page on Yahoo. Someone did a lot of work creating
the MIDI file. However, the sounds, especially the ones that are
supposed to be CS-80 (all the keyboard parts) are totally wrong. The
mp3 file is what it really sounds like.
So, who can take the MIDI file and use the appropriate track to play a
MIDIed CS-80 or the CS80v software and get the sounds right to match
the mp3 file? Of course, if you play really well you could record the
part live. I'd love to hear what people come up with! Any takers?
Please upload your results to the PRESTO folder and let us know.
David
