I have a 700 mhz PowerPC G4 Emac with 384 mb of memory running OS X 10.2.8. A year ago I went through all sorts of hell trying to set up a simple midi and audio recording system utilizing an M Audio Audiophile USB as the interface for my midi keyboards, drum machines, etc. and for audio. It was an unending nightmare of one software wanting OSX updated, another only running in 9, no communication or one way communication at best between the Mac and the devices connected to the Audiophile.
I switched over to a Mac because I was led to believe it was easy to implement and not buggy. I have successfully set up midi sequencing on PC based system in the past. I have failed utterly with the Mac. After a year, I am again thinking of trying to make this system work. My question: Will someone please suggest to me a very simple midi sequencer that will work in OS X 10.2.8 and give me your ideas on what is possibly wrong with the communication between the computer and the peripherals connected to the Audiophile. At this point I would be satisfied to be able to do midi sequencing on the Mac, leaving the audio recording to my stand-alone digital recorder. Thank you so much for your kind thoughts. Flapper |

Forgot to mention that Vivion WILL NOT work under Classic...the machine MUST boot into OS9 for it to work.
