        Is it just me, or is there a problem with the MIDI device
descriptor?  I down loadeed the MIDIMOD from wu archives and installed
it in my boot file.  (COCO3, 512K w/HD)  Boot works fine but when I have
a word processor runnning in w7 and try :

        list test2 >/midi

in w10 I get a memory error - If i remeber right it was error 207.
Mfree shows about 250K left, so there is no real memory problem.

Iniz'ing midi sort of worked but not well (system hang up as I remember
- it's tough getting old)  However if I close down the ap in w7  the
above line works great.

        Any ideas?

        Test2 is an output file from a patch editor for the PSS-480,
that I'm working on.  It creates the data to dump to the 5 programable
banks.  So far I have much of the info listed in the manual implemented
and can send the data to the synth with out errors.  first version
should be finished in a week or so.  If anyone is interested, I would
upload to wu for comments.  Currently it is text driven - 40 column.

Thanks,

        Tim D.
