BTW: I would stay clear from the M-Audio midi devices, not because they wouldn't work (AFAIK they do) but you'll have to fiddle with firmware loaders and such. Edirol or Audiotrak don't need firmware IIR and thus are much closer to "plug and play" installation. ciao -- Frank Barknecht _ ______footils.org__
