Hi there,
I have owned a Yamaha UX16 for two years and have been completely unable to make it work on either my iMac or my G4 powerbook. The programs I need to use it for are "Encore" and "Band in a Box". This weekend I have tried it for the first time on a PC, a Toshiba Satellite, and it worked, playing my Technics KN200.

For many years I've used the combination of MAC computer and KN2000 to play midi using the programs Encore and Band-in-a-box. This has been with older computers like the LC3 and the powerbook series but they are wearing out and I need to upgrade to OSX. I can't get any midi activity either in or out from iMac or G4. Has anyone any idea why, or better still can someone who has beaten this problem tell me how they did it? I have OMS installed but it just produces crashes.

Deigh,

You should be able to get OMS from this link:

Open Music Systems Download v2.8.3

The iMac should work just as well as the PowerBook especially with USB for the UX16. The CD-ROM that ships with the UX 16 has the 2.6.3 version of OMS on it.

Sorry to hear you are having such a bad run of luck with your Macs. I had just the opposite, similar issues with the PCs I had.

To upgrade to Mac OS X v10.2.x you are going to have to find a store that still is stocking 10.2. You may have better luck with Mac OS X v10.3. Currently Mac OS X v10.4 is shipping. Try Amazon or a local Mac reseller/retail store to get a copy of the upgrade software. Usually runs about $129USD.

Hope your Mac problems are solved soon.

Good luck.

deacon
