whoa.  you guys are killing me.  i haven't turned on a MIDI device in the
past 2 weeks (the 909 is using din sync).  i have been just digging into my
cv machines and having a blast.  when you start talking about sysex, iget
thatill feeling in my stomach..oh wait, that's from the cookies...where was
i..

oh, you start talking about programming MIDI and sysex and things like that.
i see MIDI as little more than note value and velocity, and a clock pulse.
i can't stand to shove bits down that serial line.  as for using it to
sequence, i find the timing is terrible.  i prefer to use devices with built
in sequencers and arps.  the fun for me is connecting it all up in a
spaghetti of triggers and cv's.  that's fun.

staring a a monitor is not making music...unless i can clock my CPU from my
606, i don't want the computer in teh studio :)
