--- Quote ---"Why is MIDI timing on a Mac so bad?"
The Macintosh has been around almost as long as MIDI itself and has long been the computer of choice by the majority of music industry professionals. Why then is a MIDI timing accuracy that leaves a lot to be desired tolerated?
Firstly, there is not much choice, whatever criticism can be levelled against the Mac other platforms are worse - far worse! Secondly, until recently there was nothing much that could be done about it.

--- Quote ---Whatever Happened to MIDI Manager?
MIDI Manager was Apple's OS Extension for supporting multiple MIDI applications, but it was never finished. When Apple started they obtained the right to use the name from the Beatles' Apple Records company and part of the contract was that they must never use the trademark on products "adapted for use in the recording or reproduction of music or of performing artist works". When Apple Records' lawyers discovered what MIDI stands for they pounced and a lengthy and bitter legal battle ensued, work on MIDI Manager ceased and it was eventually abandonded. Apple had to settle for a rather large sum and the only thing left from this episode is a System Alert of a xylophone recording called "Sosumi"...

mrhappy:
i have one of those MOTU Pocket Express interfaces that I bought so I could use Logic VS with a PC laptop that I had. The PC was too slow to be of much use though.
Irisman:
Hi,
Have someone tried this? :
"OMS installed; serial connection (no usb) -> stacking Unitor8 with Opcode Studio4, via rs422"
