Politeness would be a damn nice think to ask for considering you've slammed the
programmer personally.  We're really not "arsed" about your problems if you want
to immediately blame anyone but yourself.

Even on my PC I have trouble with AN1x Edit running through a MIDI patch bay.  I
just can't get it to work.  Now - should I assume that the software is to blame?
(Before you answer, remember you're talking to a former hardware engineer here,
now LAN engineer, so I've seen both sides of the coin.)  I personally think that
it's the AN1x itself that has a problem with the delay produced by the patch
bay.  So what  - is it hardware or software in the AN1x itself that is
problematic?  Doesn't matter, does it, since Yamaha is NOT going to modify a
product they've dumped to the Obsolete List.

Ya oughta be careful firing off blame when computers don't work, mate.  They're
really complicated and usually pretty flaky.
