…but i'm having quite a few crashes on system7.1 and system6.08, and system 6.0.4(the version in the mac classic boot ROM) mostly with unimplemented trap errors(which normally indicate a wrong os version)I actually ran Vision on a Plus but it was so long ago I can barely remember. I DO remember using it with 6.08 and by the time i went to 7, I had received updates. I don't think those were absolutely necessary to use System 7 though.
…it crashes way more than i'd expect for a program that actually shipped.
i got an original Vision binder that was given to me sittin here; and a bunch of floppy master isntall disks aswell;
also have an original Macintosh Midi Interface (1in 1out)
As I said before, specificity would help. "appears to work, but upon opening certain unnamed windows it crashes…"
yesterday i tried again with oms 1.1.3.
still the same problem, program appears to work, but upon opening certain windows, it crashes with an unimplemented trap.
ok, i'll try to be more specific, sorry for the less than detailed explanation, i assumed the answer would be something simple i had overlooked, like a missing file, it's been a while since i used a classic mac.Clicking on all different buttons causes the same error = Something incorrect, unstable or conflicted in the Mac OS……probably
thanks for your patience!
You're welcome!
vision opens and i can open a sequence, then open the piano roll editor, but if i click the button with the note on it, or the "vortex"button, vision crashes with an unimplemented trap error. and i return to the desktop and the mac remains stable.
this also happens with a load of other buttons, in other windows.
I have a midi interface, (midiman macman, which is a regular 1 in 1 out mac interface.) the out Led flashes as expected when i try to send midi notes but i haven't actually got it connected to a synth at the moment, i wanted to get it running before installing it in the studio. i have about 20 synths and samplers, and a stack of opcode studio midi intefaces used as patchbaysAfter reading THIS part, I wouldn't be much of an advisor if I didn't point out that with a roomful of synths and interfaces, the logical thing for you to do is to get a G3 or G4 that will run OS9 and get StudioVision Pro and Galaxy and later OMS (which will talk to ALL of your your Opcode interfaces) and integrate it all together.
re organising the studio is a lot of work.
LOL that took a quick turn, I'm looking for Opcode Vision 2.08 or 2.5 (NON-Studio; i.e. no audio support. Just straight up MIDI)Good luck with that. The biggest problem with those old versions is they were on copy-protected floppies that enabled TWO valid installs. Those invariably were lost in HDD crashes and such. So, if you can actually find a genuine Opcode floppy, you can run the app but copies and clones etc usually do NOT work.
I cannot comprehend why on Earth you are trying to run Vision 1let me explain...
i am fully aware that this is a silly idea,Well……finally it all starts to make sense!
in other words, doing things wrong is my hobby.

its not a nightmare to get working at all if u have the right installer 100% complete for the right mac.this is the part where i'm having nightmares... since i'm trying to find a copy that runs on a particular mac, my options are a bit limited.
