I dont think USB based MIDI interfaces are going to work very well through a virtual instance of Windows (VMware or Parallels). Its not a simulation. Its a real instance of the OS running with a hypervisor layer underneath making it think its sitting on standard PC hardware. Most hypervisors have latency involved when doing USB passthru to the actual hardware ports. So expect that you may have issues with that.?

You're better approach is to bootcamp your Mac with Windows. That will allow Windows to access the hardware directly and it will work just fine. And doesnt touch or mess with your install of OS X.

I may give that windows 7 simulation a try on a my old 13" macbook just to use the editor and random function.


Would a Emagic MT-4 work as ?basic midi interface ??

Hi folks,

I just bought the Xplorer software from

It's very good. It only just fits my 1280x800 screen, but it does fit!

The randomise patch function is a lot of fun. I'm now convinced my
Xpander can do those Human League - Romantic sounds!

I will post again once I've started programming the synth properly.

Cheers,

Jeremy.
