What I was using SysEx on was/is a first generation desktop G3, which was the last generation of Macs to have serial ports. So I was simply plugging a single cable direct from the Mac to the serial port on my QS7. That appears to be the difference....that you and Heather both have USB machines, and intermediary MIDI boxes.

Wish me luck, though. I'm in the middle of setting up and moving over to a new iMac. No more direct deposit!

: Seems like you know what's going on with all this MIDI stuff. Hope you can answer a few for me in the future, eh?
: I, like some others, had the same problem (at least it seems that way) with Mr. Grace's SysEx. I could not get it to launch, so I emailed Mr. Grace with a query, and he said I should increase the memory, which I did, and it then launched alright but it would not load all the programs, Kinda weird. I also have a midiman interface, so that must be the problem. Thanks to you, Mr Grace and Heather for sharing that info. I have had stunning results with OMS SysEx Sender. Could not be happier! Now I finally have those darned "Expando" banks to play with, and, I also got my user bank back. Whew!
: Take care,
