Thanks for your answer, Geren. 1) As i told you in the first mail, i'm working with MacOS 9.0.4 and the USB driver 1.4.1 is already included. 2) The last version of the MIDISport driver is 1.06 and it's installed in my computer. 3) I can't eliminate OMS but i hate it!!!. The MIDISport doesn't work without it, and Logic can't speak directly with the MIDI interface. 4) Yes! "the fewer extensions the better" is a healthy hint. I always try to do it from the old ATARI times. I've seen some posts related with USB-MIDI recently, do i suposse that the "MIDI note hangs" is extended to the USB users?. -- Regards Felipe Molina Canary Islands
