A WIKI can and should be edited by all MIDIboxers and will hopefully grow to an enormous know-how database for all MIDIboxers. If you have not used a WIKI before, you can have a look at the guide first, so that you know how everything works. And never forget: do not be afraid - edit & add as much as you want, the worst that can happen is that it gets changed again!!! Enjoy!
