I've said it before and I'll say it again: use Apple's MIDI Manager. The
Kirk Austin routines are extremely limited (one byte at a time, and locked
to the Mac event loop), so you'll have to do all the MIDI parsing yourself
and will never get decent performance. And, eventually, the routines will
break on new hardware and with new system software.
