Do you have your Midi code online somewhere that I can use? I have the VMWare demo installed and have it setup with Cakewalk. Unfortunately, without MIDI, it's worthless. But I'd love to try your setup - sounds smart! Let me know! -- Ross Vandegrift ross@xxxxxxxxxxxx "The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.
