- I am co-chairman of the "PTF Education Committee" (PTF is
- Parent-Teacher-Fellowship) for a private, non-profit, Christian elementary/
- middle school in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. We have two known-to-be-working Apples
- and one IBM PC. We also have an Apple that I have not looked at yet. The
- school's name is Isaac Newton Christian Academy. Money is tight, and
- the roof needs repair, so usually fund raising tends to be directed towards
- things other than computers. :-(
-
- We are, right now, working on establishing a "Computer Lab", which
- will include at least 1 of the systems set up for MIDI applications, and have
- been talking about soliciting donations.
-
- We ask that if you have ANY Apple II or MS-DOS MIDI/Audio items, that
- you would SERIOUSLY consider donating these to our school. Even if it is an
- item that needs repair, we'd be happy to accept it IF we know the repair costs
- involved before it is shipped to us. We currently have one Yamaha (forget the
- model) basic full-size, 61 key, 4-voice piano that has MIDI in/out/thru.
-
- Even though we will appreciate any donation, here are some specific
- things we are looking for at this time:
-
- o MIDI Capable Full-Size Keyboards
- o MIDI cards
- o Music Education software such as Ear training, music
- reading, music theory, keyboard skills, etc.
- o Sequencing software
- o Sound modules or cards (perhaps someone is sick of
- their MT-32?)
- o Amplifier/Speakers for Audio monitoring
- o Programmable Drum machines with built-in sounds
-
- REMEMBER... this is a BONA FIDE non-profit organization!
-
- Thank you for your consideration and support,
-
- Bruce Rothwell
