The Talking Heads Talk Software (ᴋ-ᴘᴏᴡᴇʀ 1984) 

Synthesound 64 (HesWare) is more like what the Talking Heads are used to. It converts the Commodore 64 into a synthesizer and produces a tremendous variety of musical notes and noises. The keyboard alters tones and plays like a piano keyboard.

They thought Synthesound 64 was a bit intimidating, though. There’s a lot of reading that has to be done befor eyou can do anything on it. And you have to know your way around a computer keyboard to get good results. But they thought the Commodore 64’s sound was better than Apple’s. And they felt it was very important to be able to manipulate the tones to get away from simple computer “beeps” and “boops.”
