Hello, this is my first time on this site...
I use a G3 (OS 9.2 )and have a Midisport 2x2 with an external keyboard. Recently had computer reformatted and ever since I have not been able to use the keyboard. Midi sounds can only be generated via the on-screen keyboard and I keep getting alert messages each time I start Cubase e.g. 'OMS drivers could not be loaded'. I have reinstalled OMS and revised the Midi and OMS set-ups but no dice..I get no Midi inputs on screen from the keyboard. Could it be my extensions set-up?If so, what are correct ones to be enabled/disabled in this kind of set-up? I've tried all sorts, but the truth is I just don't know enough about how it all works. Can anyone enlighten me? Or know anyone/thing that can?! Thanks, Elly. -------------------- elly

oms hasn't been updated since os8.6 days or thereabouts.
obviously, loads of hierarchical changes in the os since then. it could be considered lazy programming to rely on oms, the app has to communicate with the os via oms and vice versa, rather like you and i using an interpreter when we both speak the same language! implementing this kind of code into the os as in the case of 'x' makes this an entirely different ballgame. doug (oms author) was/is obviously a very talented programmer, but i feel would probably agree that although vastly improving on apple's midi manager then, was never the ultimate solution. what he and the 'next' guys are doing now is writing a replacement for midi manager, ie a midi solution that's part of the os! 'opinions are like arses, everybody's got one' peace, later... -------------------- one for all and all for one...
