Some of you who may have tried MIDI Station Sequencer previously may have
run into a situation where the program would not let you do any recording or
playback.  The problem is that some soundcard drivers only allow for sending
MIDI messages and not receiving them.  The latest version of MIDI Station
Sequencer now allows you to playback sequences if the driver only allows for
playback.  And, of course any track editing can be performed as well as
converting MIDI files to Types 0 and 1.

The program is available at:

Station Sequencer provides a high level of timing accuracy unattainable in
