[comp.music] Apple MIDI manager

Anyone successfully using the MIDI management tools from APDA?
I thought I could write a few nifty software effects like arpeggiators
and such like, but I install it (on a Mac Plus with system 6.0.3) and the
demonstration programs do little besides locking up the machine when
I try to quit them.  Could it be that the programs are trash?  Do the
software drivers actually work?  Could it be my wonderful DX27's
"active sensing" messages which come out every 200ms?  It's all
very puzzling, and the software seems less than robust in any case.

If anyone has made any of it work, I'd like to hear from you.

Ah, yes, another "known bug" rears it's ugly head. Version 1.2 of
the MIDI Manager doesn't work on the plus. Try 1.1. I've used it 
successfully on both a plus and a II.
