 Apple has a piece of software called the MIDI Manager, which provides
a device independent way to handle MIDI, and allows the user to use a
PatchBay program to hook up output from one MIDI application to a
particular MIDI device etc...  Most of the good MIDI music programs
are now using this.
  Then of course, there's also QuickTime.
