Right. Thanks. This is working fine and it's readable when using the
mf2t applet that Dave passed along. However I'm only able to capture
MIDI from other apps and not from my MIDI ports so far.
I seem to have MIDI modules installed. (I think...) Where is the MIDI going?
One possiblity is this stinking RME HDSP 9652 MIDI breakout connector
not making contact correctly on the card. I may have to tear the
machine appart to mod the metal on the back case...
Do you see anything wrong with the info below?
Thanks,
Mark
