First, muse works pretty well driving all of the synths through the MTP AV. The computer is an older 850MHz PIII with 926Meg Ram, an internal lvd scsi subsystem, and external CD writer. Running the RH 7.3 CCRMA setup off of one of the hard disks. Also Qua Synth. On the rack is: M Audio Delta 1010 Mark of the Unicorn MTP AV midi timepiece (8x8 midi router, parallel port style) E-MU Proteus 2000 Roland Vintage Synth M-VS1 Roland JV-2080 Mackie CR1604-VLZ Mixer Keyboards(synths): Kurzweil K2600 xs Roland A-90 Alesis Quadra Synth Yamaha EX5 Alesis Andromeda A6 Misc: Roland SPD-20 Percussion Pad Line 6 POD ver. 2.0 --- Schector electric guitar Tascam DAT stereo recorder Technics CD player (2) Mackie HR824 studio monitors Peavey PC1600x that needs to be integrated into the system as an external controller for linux programs on the computer, and as a peddle controller for the POD. Anyway, things do work in linux now thanks to a lot of creative linux programers :) I'm pretty busy on other things(spring's coming and I need to pay attention to plants and things), so I don't have a lot of time with the computer audio stuff right now.
