My MSI is up for grabs

Post by zerosin »

Sorry if it's not cool to sell here, I looked but couldn't find any rules about it.

I'm selling my MSI. It's unregistered and comes with all the original materials and packaging. $199

It's just too much for my little Mac :cry:

lol, yes I do but it's a laptop - USB dongle=PITA.

I am skint at the moment anyway so the USB dilemma is really irrelevant!

I am using a laptop too. The trick is: once MSI is running you can take dongle out. Most pain is gone then, you can just keep MSI running, if needed you can clear the patch to free RAM and CPU.

hmmm, that is interesting. So I take it this won't run stand-alone -ie I would need DP running to use it, so the last problem I have is that my USB Fastlane drivers are not UB yet and so have no way of connecting my MIDI keyboard to the mac to control this, and the main reason I want it is to be able to 'play piano'...

any word from MOTU on Universal MIDI drivers? couldn't find anything on their site except for the audio interfaces.

There's this page, although the Universal drivers have been out for awhile now, so the page is a little buried. But, I hope it helps you out:
