now that u mentiond it, why would u even wnat the oms set up open while you are using the app??????
I don't know. LOL
Syntho?

My main interest on OMS 1.x was because this versions include the compatibility file for Apple Midi Manager and this file can be used with "modern" versions of OMS.

It began more than 30 years ago in 1978 when Apple Corps filed a lawsuit against Apple Computer for trademark infringement.

The legal action was settled in 1981 for a sum that was estimated to be up to $250million but turned out to be just $80,000.

I haven't saw the video yet. But I know well this history...
I always be a fan of Apple Midi Manager. It was light years ahead of OMS, Free Midi, Midi Share... If the development of Apple Midi Manager wasn't canceled, those never can leave to be the "crapware" that they were at the beginning, and still are... IMHO of course...

It's because SoundDiver also causes the slowdown, and that stays open.

I used a program called "macopener" years ago on a windows machine. But maybe a "raw data disk read" kinda "iso image" for your disks may be more useful.

I've got lots of older stuff like this, but I need to figure out the best ways of backing up my many floppies. While I still can!

see this thread where i retreived my disks via a windows machine with a floppy and this winimage program. i stil lhavnet finished this tho i never accessed the actual filename.ima image files on a mac yet..i have yet to confirm it works to do so but i think they are supposedly able to be mounted on the mac desktop same as a diskcopy image. but was able to get the files directly off using the pc to read them with this mac reading app  and extractthe files directly to my afp fileserver

wasnt there a post made on this forum where someone had posted approximate dates for the versions of oms?
if everyone helped to check the date of the files we could make an index or reference of different oms driver versions to refer to
