Here's an excerpt from 10.2.3 release document. This may be a good news some peple here...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107263 ... Audio Enhancements * Addresses a potential issue in which sound from some USB audio devices may "stutter" after waking from sleep. * Addresses an issue in which iSub, when used with some third-party USB speakers, could produce static. * Improves default reverb setting for applications which use QuickTime Musical Instruments. * Addresses an issue in which audio recorded from a USB device with a sample rate of 48k or 96k may include distortion. * Improves results when recording from a USB microphone with a sample rate of 11.025k or 22.050k. * Addresses an issue in which a MIDI device may unexpectedly fail to be recognized, when several devices are connected. * Refines MIDI device support by removing compatibility for MIDI devices that are connected via a serial port (which Apple has not shipped with machines for several years). |

QUOTE (ryosode @ Dec 19 2002, 23:24) ... and I guess it could be a bad news for some people if this is true: * Refines MIDI device support by removing compatibility for MIDI devices that are connected via a serial port (which Apple has not shipped with machines for several years). <TRANSLATION>: "So screw everybody who bought one for hundreds of dollars based on fraudulent outer-packaging misrepresentation: 'Compatible with Mac OS.' Oh, yeah: and screw the third-party companies who pissed us off and made serial port cards to replace what we had amputated. You will go *our* way, no matter what it costs you, and we don't even need a cattle prod to make you go our way! BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!" </TRANSLATION> Not being one of the Apple screwees in this particular box-car load, I am no less disgusted. It took a particularly devious marketing mind to couch this statement in the pathetic lie that this somehow "refines MIDI device support." No it doesn't: it *reduces* MIDI device support by cutting out owners of serial MIDI devices, period. Just what kind of idiots do the idiots who write this tripe take the public for? |
