Re: [OT] Midi Merging

I was able to use the MOTU interface for a while but as my computer 
system got more complex the MOTU started having more and more 
problems. In the begining the timing started to go off. After a while 
I could not use it at all. Your experience will vary with the 
software packages you are using. I would reccomend trying it out 
before buying it, if you can. There is also a lot of information on 
the various users groups. Search through yahoo groups, ezboard, 
google and the like to find the groups.

For OS, it seems like winMe and win2K are not nearly as well 
supported by the music industry as win98 and winXP. Almost everyone 
reccomends one of the latter two, depending on the software you are 
using.
