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 guess the main thing is that OSX will not run properly on anything older then a blue and white, so the market for serial interfaces is pretty much dead.
I still use a serial time piece on an old Performa 6115CD, this computer runs my libarian programs and is a big metrenome sending out MTC. I went out and got a usb Timepiece for my G4, This whole thing really makes my system tight. -------------------- BING BING BLEEP ERRRRRRR[I]
