Rebirth and Mac OS X
Hi,
Does Rebirth actually work on Mac OS X? I downloaded it okay and got it up and running but the sound keeps glitching out. I've tried adjusting the buffering and changing my Sytems Settings/Energy Saver to highest performance all to no avail.
Should I just delete the whole thing and forget about it?
Thanks.

Rebirth is not fully supported in OSX ie. from the Rebirth site it says will not fully function. Can you run it in classic? Otherwise, not sure how it would go on Virtual PC (as I see you are on a G4). I have had it working in XP/Parallels on my intel iMac.

As it stands I do not use rebirth at all, but I did download it when they started giving it away. I can tell you for sure that it does not run in OSX at all. It's an OS9 app, you can run it in classic but running any audio app in classic isn't the best idea.
Classic is sort of like virtual PC, all it is doing is running OS9 under OSX, I think classic was mainly a transitional tool for the switch when OSX was first released. Ideally boot into OS 9 (if your mac still supports that) when running rebirth.
For example, I have an old G3 imac that my wife uses (though she is really trying to take over my powerbook), once we get her a new computer I am thinking about taking that G3 and installing OS9 on it and making it a dedicated machine for rebirth. Who knows though, maybe it will end up as a juke box for the basement.

I've been using Rebirth on Parallels quite a while for creating background loops and exporting them as wav files. I had no succes integrating rebirth in this kind of setup, since parallels is missing a Audio/Midi Bridge.
Had anybody experience with midi over tcp/ip in parallels? What latency will occur?
