hi,

MIDI doesn't transmit audio signals, just control signals.  if you want to record the
MD into, say, peak, you'll need to connect the MD's audio outputs to your laptop's line-level
input... or an audio interface, which, if the powerbook's inputs are as noisy as every
other notebook's that i've heard, is the preferable choice.
