David,
That's weird. It's *just* Music-X that doesn't work right?
<Twilight Zone theme playing in background.> The only thing I can think of
is that there's something else doing DMA while Music-X is talking to the
serial port. Do you have a hard drive with multiple partitions on your
Ami? (If I remember right -and I may not — each partition is polled every
few seconds to see if it's been changed.) That could interrupt the DMA to
the serial port. Hmm… I suppose it could be a CIA chip that's slightly
off in its timing… Have you tried swapping CIAs to see what happens?
Mind you, this is all pure speculation, here. Still, why it should run on
one machine and not another is a real puzzle. Oh well, as long as you're
happy with it, I guess it's not much of a problem. 🙂
