OK, I'm using a 286 PC clone, 12 MHZ, a MPU401 MIDI board, and a 
Yamaha PSS-680 synth. Again, I'm no keyboardist, but pressing ten keys
simultaneously, and running fast scales
I can't hear any ripple effect or bent notes or uneveness of volume
or delay.

I need to have other people try it on their setups, though. If you would
be interested in seeing if it works for you, please email me. Please
understand that it is not ready for anything but beta test distribution,
so your willingness to be patient and to give feedback both positive and
negative is requested.
