>If you know how to program in Java 2, this can probably be done without a >ton of effort. I believe Java 2 1.4 has the javax.sound.midi packages now. Java 1.4 is still in Beta... I'd be careful were I you. javax.sound.midi is included in 1.3, anyway! <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3.0/docs/guide/sound/> There is a good document in the 1.4 specs about Java sound... http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/sound/programmer_guide/contents.html I think very little has changed between 1.3 and 1.4 so you should be safe using this. /t (NB: If you are on Mac OS 9.x, you can only get Java 1.1 so you are out of luck....) <http://ax.to/fortune>.........a new fortune every minute. <http://FortNY.com>..................Forteans of New York.
