REQUEST: I would like to know what protocol is involved in this interface. What hardware is needed? The owners manual came with only the hardware specs for MIDI, but what is the actual protocol? Packets? Are there any references I can acquire? Someone once wrote of a MIDI users group or newsletter (for a fee!); could you repost? Thanx in advance, M.K. Pula IH 4G-421 x5927
