It is available at: http://www.ece.arizona.edu/~john/drivers.html This machine is a MIDI merger, MIDI computer interface, MIDI coprocessor, and a SMPTE timecode generator/converter. MOTU built the thing to be used with their own software that originally ran on the Mac, and now Windoze. Hopefully we will start to see some open source software that uses it too. This machine is much more sophisticated than a MPU-401 interface, but is similar to it in function. I have also provided some timing diagrams for anybody who wants to write their own driver. Please let me know of any problems with it whatsoever, so I can get it fixed. Plus, I would like to know if anybody else is remotely interested in this. Thanks!
