[QLab] MIDI and System Exclusive commands

[Jim Carroll]

It is old enough that I think it has issues with just pushing the Go  
button. I'll re-read the manual and call NSI. It can send MIDI output  
to a disk and use an RS232 port, but for input, only SysEx messages  
will work with the unique ID etc.

Is wishful thinking. I don't have to use this board until next summer  
so there's time to see if something can be developed. We're doing  
Avenue Q in 2008 and I'd like to be able to integrate everything as  
there is video, sound and lights in this production. It'll be the  
most complex show we've attempted in this theatre.  Not having to  
call 3 sets of cues would be _really_ nice.
