I appreciate all the inputs on live midi. I have decided
to abandon DOS/Midiman Serial Portman due to the quirky
limitations of Cakewalk 5.0 (no midi files over 199K in
size!), and try the "ShowPlay" software, with their
dedicated serial midi out on a 486 laptop. Their site
seems to show some engineering real effort trying to
make live midi play solid, and min setup is a 486SX w/
8M running Windows 95 (cheap on ebay!). In fact, they
recommend 95 over 98 or Win ME due to lower overhead.
B/W screens are also supported. This way, I can get
lyric display also. If anyone's interested, I'll let you
know how it works out. Canadian Technology! Here's their
site:
