RE: [AN1x-list] Midi Interfaces in Win2000 ??

To clear things up:
I've got a MidiMan Portman 2x4 and works absolutly fine with my Roland & 
Yamaha gear.
MidiMan support told me that there will be no Win2000 drivers for my PortMan 
2x4 though :(
So I'm stuck with Win98 or ME.

Who told you that MidiMan is shitty? I read a test of Midi-interfaces not so 
long ago and Midiman was one of the best and I'm happy with mine.

Anyway, Windows 2000 supports USB so buy an USB midiport.
When those USB ports where introduced, people where a bit sceptic about the 
speed-performance but I hear no negative words about that anymore.

That's my humble opinion and maybe there are some guys/gals on this list who 
can fill us in about those USB<>speed stories.
