Midi Translator DirectMusic Driver Version History
The driver now supports daisy-chained devices. Up to 4 Midi Translators can be
linked and used as one big device.
Added an option to tweak the parallel port communication speed.
Fixed a problem where using the driver in combination with Syncrosoft protection
devices could lead to a system crash.
Fixed a problem where only the first instance of a MIDI port would
receive valid system real time messages (multi-client issue).
Optimized transmission of MIDI data. Transmission is improved slightly by using
a different driver design.
The driver now uses less system resources.
Fixed some bugs that could cause problems when multiple instances of a port were used,
potentially leading to a BSOD.
Fixed a problem with system exclusive messages of certain sizes. They could cause
data loss and memory corruption, sometimes leading to BSOD's.
Reduced the driver's memory consumption considerably.
Improved the handling of system realtime messages. Although I am not certain if anyone has had
problems with this, it is nice to know that these messages are now handled in accordance with the MIDI
specifications.
Fixed a problem with MIDI running status and active sensing.
Solved data corruption problems with system exclusive messages in applications
using the DirectMusic API.
Optimized code, reducing CPU load by 30 to 40 percent.
First version of the DirectMusic driver, implementing multi-client capability
and timestamping of input data.
Introduced PortNamer utility to rename individual ports.
Introduced installer application for easy installing.
