Just got word that MOTU is abandoning all MOTU serial port MIDI hardware owners as far as OS X goes. As far as MOTU is concerned, if you own a MOTU serial interface MIDI device, you can take your serial cable and shove it up...well, into a PC, maybe?
Got this from a friend who is stuck with a $400.00 paperweight with a pretty blue unicorn logo on it, currently doing battle with MOTU. The unit works just *fine* under OS 9.x, so it ain't the serial card, and it ain't the hardware. MOTU is just abandoning all support for their entire serial line apparently, at least as far as Mac OS X. I'll try to get more details as the saga drags on. Pathetic. |

I'm a relatively new G4 owner/828/DP3 user who removed the internal modem and installed a serial G4port after reading many posts re. the bugs USB MIDI interfaces had. I've found that my MACMAN serial MIDI interface works with the G4 (on 0S 9) without a hitch, and suspect that I'm not unique. I'm dissapointed to hear that I'll probably have to buy some new stuff if the day that OSX actually becomes useful for recording with my apps. ever arrives.
