The importance of OS X with Audio - OS X introduced Core Midi and Core Audio, which got an important update in OS X 10.4 Tiger which allowed to use multiple Audio Interfaces mixed and simultaneously, now all MIDI and Audio Devices will communicate with Core Midi and Core Audio and new ones only have to be recognized there and be available from as many apps as you want and as many devices you want. lots of keyboards and usb deviced do not even need a driver and in opposite to Windows it works on ANY USB or firewire port, you never hve to reinstall something just because you have changed the ports. | The importance of OS X with Audio - OS X introduced Core Midi and Core Audio, which got an important update in OS X 10.4 Tiger which allowed to use multiple Audio Interfaces mixed and simultaneously, now all MIDI and Audio Devices will communicate with Core Midi and Core Audio and new ones only have to be recognized there and be available from as many apps as you want and as many devices you want. lots of keyboards and usb deviced do not even need a driver and in opposite to Windows it works on ANY USB or firewire port, you never hve to reinstall something just because you have changed the ports. | ||
Also [[Apple]] changed their overall politics when they aquired [[emagic]], so they had Logic under the same roof but cancelled a all MIDI activity exept the usual tools, so sounddiver died in times of Logic 5.5 and 6.X Pro - strange since Core MIDI is a very powerful tool and [[MIDI]] will be important for making music for a lot of time since software does not all the jobs sometimes. | Also [[Apple]] changed their overall politics when they aquired [[emagic]], so they had Logic under the same roof but cancelled a all MIDI activity exept the usual tools, so sounddiver died in times of Logic 5.5 and 6.X Pro - strange since Core MIDI is a very powerful tool and [[MIDI]] will be important for making music for a lot of time since software does not all the jobs sometimes. | ||
