Thank you and Doug both so much for your helpful responses. Just to set the record straight, this one wasn't MAudio's fault. It was definitely user error. I thought I knew what was in the Library/Audio/MIDI Drivers directory, but your note prompted me to look again--and voila, there were two extra drivers (a different MAudio driver and an eMagic driver) I had installed a year ago when I was testing something for a customer. I trashed the extra drivers, which were undoubtedly all fighting with each other, and now everything works perfectly. THANKS!

From memory this is a problem with the MAudio driver and you should
contact them to get an updated version (or just disable this on your
Panther partition - move the driver somewhere out of the Library/ Audio/MIDI Drivers dir so the MIDI Server doesn't find it).

Strictly speaking, this isn't a programming problem, except that
it's preventing me from doing the MIDI programming I need to be
doing right now.  I've installed an M-Audio Audiophile MIDI
interface on my 10.3.9 PowerBook and on my 10.4.4 PowerBook.  On
the Tiger PowerBook, everything works fine, but on Panther, even
though I can set General Preference/Sound input and output to my
Audiophile MIDI interface, MIDI doesn't work at all.  When I start
up Finale, I get the following error message:  "An error occurred
while attempting to use CoreMIDI."  When I try to start up Audio
MIDI Setup and choose MIDI Devices, I get "Loading" and the
spinning cursor for quite a while, and then I get "Application has
unexpectedly quit."  All of this works fine on Tiger, but I really
need MIDI to work on Panther too.  I did recently install QuickTime
7.0.4 on my Panther computer, but it messed up some vital software
on that computer, so I actually downgraded QuickTime all the way
back to 6.5.2.  Since then, I've tried reinstalling 10.3.9, but it
hasn't solved the CoreMIDI problem.  Is there anything else I
should try before I just give up and do a clean reinstall of
10.3.9?  (And yes, I know I should be using the latest version of
XCode on Tiger, but that's not a viable option at this moment
because I foolishly put Tiger on my "bad" PowerBook instead of my
good one.)

Thanks for any advice you can give me.
