"MIDI is dead. The latency, is simply not musical. I have worked with midi since the early 90s. Its a low baud serial connection. Play 5 notes at once? Nope, its now a really fast appregio." I suspect that's wholly upon your equipment. I've got an old 486 with an AWE32 on it. Never once in my life have I encountered the problems you describe and my keyboard was a DIN5 connected Korg. "Got a nicer keyboard that sends velocity, aftertouch and control commands? Even more quickly flooded." Let me guess, you were using the game port on the back of your sound card instead of a sound card with a dedicated MIDI input/output?
