I didn't see anything similar on Udi's site, but unless I misunderstand, 
I think both the solutions you mention will only play back files that 
have been created in MIDI format. Shakobox is different -- it allows 
scripted, on-the-fly, HyperCard-style notation, which isn't the same as 
MIDI. This type of notation seems to be one of the rare things that 
HyperCard people want but which isn't supported in either MetaCard or 
Revolution. Shakobox tries to fill that gap.
