The following Midi applications have been uploaded to the ucsd.edu
anonymous ftp server which archives a variety of Midi software, 
synthesizer patches, sequences, and general information.

MiniTrax 1.54:      "small" Midi sequencer and sample sequences
CZ Librarian 3.0:   patch librarian for Casio CZ synthesizers
Kamikaze DX:        patch librarian for Yamaha DX synthesizers
Q-Lib:              patch librarian for the Ensoniq ESQ-1 synthesizer
MidiScope 1.1:      MIDI data analyzer/utility
Bulk Sysex Utility: generic system exclusive data transfer utility

The files were uploaded in the usual Mac "filename.sit.hqx" format,
meaning that the files were first compressed with StuffIt 1.5.1
and then "BinHexed" to convert them to a portable ascii format.
Specific Mac-oriented "How to ftp" instructions explaining the 
downloading procedure can be found in the periodic "Frequently 
Asked Questions" posting in the comp.sys.mac.announce newsgroup.

These applications were included on a "Public Domain" diskette that
ships with Altech MIDI interfaces.  They are distributed by Altech
mainly as a way of promoting their popular MIDI programming software
packages, "MidiBasic" and "MidiPascal".  All of them require an
Apple Macintosh computer, MIDI interface, and MIDI synthesizer
in order to run them.

Altech Systems offer many Midi products for the Apple Macintosh
including inexpensive MIDI interfaces. Their address and phone number:
