[comp.sys.atari.st] 520STfm -- Probs. w/MIDI

Hi -

	Has anyone ever heard of an ST overheating and crashing or
something when using the MIDI port?  Here's my problem:  I've had my
520STfm for about 2 years and only recently started using MIDI
software.  Two separate sequencers I have used crash occasionally for
no aparent reason.  The first software package I used was PD, so I
thought it may have just been buggy.  The software I'm using now
(Mastertracks) seems to work fine, but if I leave the computer on
running it for more than an hour or two, it crashes.  After it
crashes, I have to wait an hour or so before I can run the sequencer
again.  Other types of software seem to work fine (I leave UniTerm
running almost constantly and it never crashes).

	Any suggestions?

B.T.W.  My synth is a Roland D-10, if that's a clue.
