Me?!
Just a few words about me. Click here to know about my friends (page in Italian).My real name is Roberto Fasiani, I am 28 years old. I live in Milan, (Italy). In 1996-7 I spent one year working in London (U.K.). I graduated in 1996 at Politecnico di Milano . At present I work for Comparex , a European-wide company selling networking stuff. I am in the presales team and I currently design internetworks based on most current technologies (IP telephony, Frame Relay WANs, Gigabit or ATM LANs).
Is this Mr.Zap or Yotsuya?
The story
The idea to make midi files came up first in September 1995. A friend of mine, a professional musician, made a midi version of an Italian anime opening song. I liked his idea and bought an AWE32. Midi after midi, I converted my favourite themes from the best anime series. My work was most intense in the last few months before my graduation (I didn't have much to do other than revising my C++ program). Unfortunately now I have very little time left for my hobby. What I've done so far is my little contribution to the anime fans around the globe.
