i couldn't find the "mci.mc.gz" stack at
ftp.metacard.com. maybe it is being updated?

google "Media Control Interface MIDI MetaCard"
returned over a hundred entries.

what about an external MIDI "box"? does that
involve too much plumbing for MC to deal with?
direct MIDI cable ports seem to have been phased
out, but the serial cable is said to be more
problematic from the sequencers point of view.
is anyone using MC and MIDI for performance or rehearsal?

Hi Erik,

As you may know, there are some MIDI access capabilities available through MC's "MCI" 
(Media Control Interface - Win32 only) commands. You can explore the MCI stuff by 
getting the "mci.mc.gz" stack from ftp.metacard.com and going to its "Commands" tab. 
The dropdown list has a "MIDI Sequencer Commands" item that'll take you there.

HTH.
Phil

Flash, director... Freehand... great kit, director's scripting language
"lingo" is like HyperTalk...
There's a bunch of others for PC but I can think of none that stand out as
much...

GraphicConverter is, IMOHO, well worth the purchase for Mac artists BTW...
Photoshop helps getting back to reality on PC's - too bad for the Adobe GUI
aberations!

OT -- Animation Programs

2002-02-28 Thread Sivakatirswami

Forgive this off topic query, but I can't think
of a better group to give recommendations:

If you had to purchase animation/cartooning software for your art
director/artists, (already fluent in Adobe PS and IL)
 what would be your choice? End product would be anything from
simple animated GIF's to movie cartoons.
