When trying to use a joystick converter midi cable, those extra-long cables always caused problems. I'm considering the following: Emu XMidi 2x2 (no dangling cables) Eridol UM-2EX (attached USB cable, but has MIDI jacks) M-Audio Midisport 1x1 (no dangling cables, but requires firmware loader) Anyone here have an opinion on the Eridol/Roland adapter? -- David Griffith dgriffi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
