Hello,
I would like to ask for some advice about setting up a PowerBook Pismo as a MIDI synthesizer.
I have a M-Audio Keystudio 49:

Since it had no build in midi synthesizer and the software to get some sound out of it is hdd hungry and hardware hungry, I was thinking about options.
I could buy a midi synthesizer for keyboards, like the yamaha tone generator:

but they are expensive and hard to get by.
or set up a PowerBook Pismo, to get some sound out of it.
I just want to get some sound out of the keyboard, few pianos and some wulitzer or rhodes.
PowerBook has: 450MHz G3, 256 RAM, and a 40GB HDD.
Both 10.4 and 9.2.2 installed.
No better place I guess to ask for advice than here.
What would you recommend on doing? 8-o
