Re: [xl7] Re: Upgrading OS help! (MIDI question)

2004-06-24 by erik_magrini@Baxter.com

I'll sell you my Uno for $25 if you or anyone else wants it, that's what I 
was trying to tell you before.

Will a serial interface work better than a USB one?  Hard to say, a lot of 
factors determine that, and even if you were to give us your PC specs, it 
would still be herd to say for sure.

Will that do the exact same quality job as the M-Audio UNO? I would 
rather buy something cheaper than the UNO, because it costs $60.00 
Canadian (before taxes), and I'll likely only ever use it once (to 
upgrade the XL-7s OS). Also, do you have any brands/models of serial 
to midi cables that I could search for? (I tried using Google, but I 
can only find cables with one MIDI cable end - we need cables with 
both IN and OUT, correct?)
