Looking for some guidance from the MIDI folk on the list... I have been thinking for a while that it would be cool to set up my 280 as a lean and clean MIDI machine. Thus far I have had little luck getting a MIDI file player to work without freezing after a few minutes. The 280 is set up as follows: 12 MB RAM (Ram Doubler installed; set to 24 MB total); OS 7.6.1 I have tried ClubMID, MIDIJukebox, MIDPlay (all shareware). I have used OMS and MIDIManager with each, with the best results coming with ClubMID & OMS; also have used QuickTime as synth as well as a Kawai K4. I'll set it up, start it playing a file, and after a few minutes or so, the machine has frozen up. I have set up extensions to a minimum (no fax software, no Express Modem, no OpenTransport, no FreePPP) although I *do* use SmartScroll and Ram Doubler, as mentioned before. Have tried with AppleTalk off and on as well. Don't know if I have left out any vital details here or not, but any insight/suggestions from other musicians and MIDIphiles on the list would be appreciated.
