I cannot seem to get DP3 to allow me to input midi info. from my
synth. Here's the setup:

Yamaha S80 synth into MOTU Fastlane USB. Sequencer is DP3. Hardware
is MOTU 1224 interface on a G4/400 using OS9.

I have installed, uninstalled, reinstalled, and whatnot a jillion
times with OMS and/or Free Midi and every combination imaginable. Although my S80 is in my OMS/FreeMidi studio setup, I still cannot get DP3 to even list the S80 or anything, for that matter, as a possible INPUT. It lists the IAC driver as the chosen OUTPUT, giving me the option to select the S80 as output if I want. How do I get this configured right?

Another glitch: upon the advice of another user, I uninstalled
FreeMidi and OMS and started over, installing and setting up OMS
first, and then FreeMidi. It seemed to detect all of the hardware
fine, and then I added my S80 as another device at the beginning of
the chain. Here's the glitch. Now when I do anything with midi
information, my computer slows to a halt, the arrow slowly jumps
around the screen, and then the whole thing locks up. This was not
happening before I reinstalled the OMS and FreeMidi stuff.

I'm somewhat new to this, and I can't seem to figure out how to get
midi info from one place to the other. My S80 is transmitting on ch.
1 and the IAC is set to receive on all, I believe. I'm not sure
though. How do I configure my setup so that the info. will at least
get to DP3? Any help would help!

Thanks in advance,

Bill
