Juuso Koponen: > Hmm? --removed BlahBlah about midi2-- Yes it's true that midi2, when it _realy_ hits the markets (remember how long this has been under development or what ever, its allready late for some years now(?)) is big change for manufacturers and eventually for us of course. On the transition phase when there's both midi1&2 (and this phase is long, in fact it's everlasting), and specially at the beginning we are most propably forced to buy expensive midi1tomidi2 converters. Just quessing but you now how these things goes.. I have no proper knowledge about firewire protocol and techniques but I have this impression its not so hard (meaning expensive to build) technology, so with luck we may be able to handle the tarnsition quite easily. Second thing to remember here while talking about new midi standard is the fact that many synth manufacturers have been developing their own communication standards. So, midi2 is in hurry if we want to be some rational situation with media connectivity standards. codec
