Hi Thomas,

Sorry for the delay, I'm swamped with work at the moment.

The problem is latency, probably system latency. What distribution are 
you using ?

What's the hog threshold set for in dosemurc ?

I use JAD 1.0 (OpenSUSE 10.2) for 32-bit work, 64 Studio for 64-bit 
work. I run DOSemu on both machines. Both systems are equipped with 
low-latency kernels, and I routinely run the JACK server with less than 
6 msecs latency and no xruns.

I prefer DOSemu on the 32-bit box, but performance is good on both 
machines. Btw, I only use DOSemu to run Sequencer Plus Gold, so the MIDI 
I/O has to work for me. :)

Best,
