Re: Composer's Mosaic 1.58 on Mac OS X?

Jesse: To open and work with Mosaic, you would need any Mac that can run OS9, and the Mosaic app. You would have to find these two items somewhere, perhaps by surfing around. I have these and they are the only way I can access all my old Mosaic files. (Sorry, but I will never let go of my Mac G4 or ...

Re: Composer's Mosaic 1.58 on Mac OS X?

Hey, Guys: I've just about given up trying. I'd rather spend time (when necessary) to work with Mosaic on my G4, System 9. It works fine to the extent of editing and printing the documents I have already created. All new docs have been with Sibelius 6 on the G5 running OS 10.5.8. Thanks much for you...

Re: Composer's Mosaic 1.58 on Mac OS X?

Yes, I tried that. Sibelius can read the MIDI file, but the resulting formatting is so weird that it takes almost more time to fix than it would be to start from scratch.

Re: Composer's Mosaic 1.58 on Mac OS X?

Well, I tried the MIDI route, and discovered that I would spend just as much time—maybe less—entering each voice of each Mosaic file into Sibelius by hand. Or, doing what I'm now doing—using my old G4 just for Mosaic. If I remember correctly my first OS on my first G5 purchased four years ago came w...

Re: Composer's Mosaic 1.58 on Mac OS X?

Prior to when I bought an iMac G5 with OS X, I ran Mosaic on a Mac G4 with OS 9 ("Classic") and used the MOTU "FastLane" USB MIDI interface for playing back files. They also can be played back with the internal sound of the Mac. Sibelius has a built-in interface, and the playback...

Composer's Mosaic 1.58 on Mac OS X?

I have hundreds of Mark Of the Unicorn Composer's Mosaic 1.58 files that will only run on Mac's OS 9. Is there a way to convert them to Sibelius (which I am now using) so that they can be run on OS X? If so, how is this done? If not, forget about it; I will probably have to manually enter each voice...
