You probably don't know this, so don't think it's a flame at you, 'cause it's
not.  It just has to be said every now and then.

MIDI Synth is not a released product and is not licensed for electronic
distribution anywhere.  It's on America Online through a hole in the licensing
agreement Apple has not yet chosen to close.  Revision of standard licensing
agreements is underway because of this loophole (and is delaying electronic
licensing of some things you'd like to see online).

The only way MIDI Synth is officially available as a stand-alone package is
through APDA.  The package includes synthLAB, as well as developer
documentation for the MIDI Synth tool calls.  If you see MIDI Synth available
electronically in any place other than America Online, please bring it to my
attention.
