[Coco] VIP Writer 3

Wed May 27 19:10:25 EDT 2015

Cocofriends, 
   the Musica2 manual had been uploaded to the archive.  32 pages of bright red musical fun.  Took me a while to find it,  but happy to do it.

Sean, The Musica II manual is definately needed. I had Lester Hands himself 
scan the other manuals (Lyra & CocoMIDI Pro), but he couldn't find a copy of 
Musica II to scan. I would love to also find scans of Musia I & CocoMIDI 3.

I'm pretty sure I have the docs for Musica II ver. 2.5.  A bit odd, because 
I don't have the original software.  I'll check to see what these "docs" 
really are.

CocoMIDI 2 & CocoMIDI were more about the hardware. It wasn't until CocoMIDI 
3 that Lester went full out with the recording software. I think someone 
else had done the 1st and 2nd ones, which were just simple MIDI recording 
utils without much editing capabilities like 3 & Pro had.
Another manual of Lester's that I thought I had, but cannot find is the 
"Lyra Companion", which was a complete guide to using Lyra.

Speaking of manuals,  I believe I have the Musica 2 manual in a box 
somewhere.
I saw the archive has the French and Portuguese manuals but not English.  It 
is
bright red, not sure how easy that will be to scan,  but I'll give it a try 
if
anyone is interested.   I also have an original Musica 2 midi keyboard my 
uncle
gave me, I'd like to photograph it and put it in my Facebook coco album.

Cheers

</div>Apologies on the overdue update: found my VIP
Writer book (blue cardboard
cover) as it came with VIP Writer III, only to see
it to have only two
updated pages glued on - on regards of the formatting
commands for printer
output, missing are the addendum ones that go over the
Writer III specifics
(Work Space, WIDTH, etc).

Will keep on looking for those
and will upload to the archive when found...
