Steve As for the guy that wired your branch circuits I would not pay him another dime......... I contend he should know the difference between a dedicated and a separate circuit.As for the 3 wire multi-wire branch circuit you have now, if you only use one of the two circuits that would basically be a dedicated circuit. So you have two dedicated circuits. Just make sure the one you use is fed from the same Line as the single duplex dedicated circuit. As for the odd ball separate circuit.......see if the electrician that did the job will at least come to your home and either move the circuit in the electrical panel to the SAME breaker as the good circuit, or disconnect the oddball circuit from the breaker and at the 2 gang outlet box rework the two duplexes so they will be fed from the good circuit. This will give you a dedicated 4 plex.
As for connecting your computer to the other separate circuit imho you power amps will suffer, imo. Computers are filthy beasts when it comes to the junk they put back on the AC line. Remember on a 3 wire multi wire branch circuit only the unbalanced load will return on the neutral conductor to the source. That means the rest of junk on the current of the computer would be in series with the power supplies of your power amps. Kind of defeats the purpose of the new circuit don't it?
