Subject: Re: Question about System OS (newbie here)

Hi,

I am currently working on a fix to get an.factory working on OSX Lion - OSX Lion Java MIDI support is screwed. I have it working, but am currently doing some testing. I hope to have this released in a few weeks.

Keep an eye on www.xfactory-librarians.co.uk for info.

an.factory is a librarian and file editor, not a patch editor, but I am thinking of doing the latter as it gets harder to run the original software on modern systems. Being Java based, then I support both PC and Mac. So, if there is enough demand it might help formalise my plans to work on an editor.

Cheers
Derek

The only issue I've encountered is that occasionally when I'm sending a patch to the keyboard, the process will hang, and I'll need to restart both the keyboard and the computer in order to get them talking again. This happens maybe once out of 50-100 transfers.

You can decide whether you like it, and if you want to keep it, use the keyboard to store it in whatever slot you'd like to overwrite. Thanks to everyone who's contributed such great patches over the years!!!!
