I have a G4 PowerBook that isn=E2=80=99t really being used, so I thought =
I would run Sysex Librarian on it (there are still old versions on the =
snooze.net website), to use with my DX7II. It=E2=80=99s pretty ancient =
though, with a PowerPC CPU, and is running Mac OS X 10.4. I=E2=80=99ve =
looked at a few MIDI interfaces, like the IK Multimedia iRig MIDI 2, and =
the M-Audio MIDISPORT 2x2. The iRig MIDI lists OS X 10.6 and later as =
compatible, the MIDISPORT does list OS X 10.4.9 as compatible. There=E2=80=
=99s also a mystery brand interface on Amazon (DigitalLife) for $60 I =
might take a chance on. Does anyone have some experience with MIDI =
interfaces and elderly versions of Mac OS X? Are the interfaces =
generally compatible, and the manufacturers just list recent versions of =
OS X to be safe? Or do the interfaces really have problems, or not work, =
with older versions of OS X?

Thanks in advance for any advice.=
