I am an owner of a Roland sound canvas sc88 which I use it for gaming especially on my Cyrix Dos PC and sometimes on my Macintosh Performa 6116CD. I would like to have both computers connected with the canvas but there is sound only with the cable connected in midi B rear port. I have tried both computers with the in midi A and in midi B front ports but there is no sound. So when I want to use my Macintosh I have to disconnect the midi cable from Cyrix 's midi interface and connected it on Mac 's midi interface.
A) Is there an adjustment that I can do in order to use two in midi ports connected the one with the pc and the other with the Mac and have sound without disconnecting/ connecting the midi cables?
B) Can I use a male midi to 2x female midi adapter cable? The male side connected on sound canvas in midi port and both computers connected with male midi cables on the 2x of the female midi adapter.
C) Regarding question B, can this also be done with my Roland MT32? My purpose is to have both computers connected with Roland Sound Canvas SC88 and Roland MT32.
