Thanks everyone for your comments. They have all been very informative. This last is a major factor in me deciding the go for AMD. I did notice that as soon as the Ryzen series was publicised Intel started talking about new processors and price reductions. @Ralf MIDI jitter is a big problem for me, but I've been able to pin it down fairly well. It's almost entirely due to a problem between the chair and the keyboard.
