I'm trying to use OMS 2.3.8 and am having trouble getting sound from the Quicktime extensions in OS 9.1. I'm using OMS to play music scores from the Nightingale 3.0 notation program. It all works on my old Mac (running 8.1) but though Nightingale works on my newer Mac I can't get my scores to play from the built-in speakers. I don't use the program more than 2 or 3 times a year so I kinda hate to buy the latest version (US $89). Any drivers or clues someone can suggest?

I'm a newbie, but don't get me started on OMS - nasty little piece of code.
Try downgrading to 2.3.7, get rid of any FreeMIDI folders and extensions, apparently the two don't get along, I don't intend to patronise you; but have you clicked on the Test Studio drop-down menu at the top of the screen: you get a little 1/8 note that appears over the synth device - click that and big earblasting avant-garde noise is produced, and also in test studio mode you tap keys on the synth and get a nice young lass telling you the MIDI has been received... Alternately, restart you computer half a dozen times, OMS seems to like that a lot; or start a hate-mail petition for the design team behind OMS. ie: my name is...., and I would like to see a mac-friendly version of OMS that works like the rest of my mac software, instead of being impossible to understand, lacking proper documentation and acting a heckuvalot like W___dows, grrrrrrrr. Hope that's helped. Ash |
