midisport set-up was trivial

Yep. Not much to *that*!

Works great.

Good. I was hoping I didn't have to cringe after my advice!

So what you do now is, even though you may not have more gear, just set up something in a sequencer and cut-and-paste some track that has a lot of events into four tracks, each one going to one of the four ports. Maybe stagger the pasting so everything isn't lined up exactly.

Then turn out the lights in the room, hit 'play', and watch those LEDs on the front of the box go nuts. Just like the 60's all over again... :)

Cheers,
Jon
