You should probably try to find Apple's MIDI Manager. I know that it's 
supposed to be included with System 7, but I have seen it being used
with 6.0.4. 
On a related note: Does anyone know where I could find some info on
how to use the thing? The machine I saw it running on got the system patch
and some sample applications, but no real docs at all. I would really like to
get ahold of the programming documentation...... help......
